Found: One Small Bag of Cocaine. 

A handbag found near 26th St. and 5th Ave. contained a little more than your standard pack of gum. A pedestrian found the purse laying on the sidewalk on the morning of March 4, and while looking inside to determine its owner, found a small ziplock bag of cocaine inside.  

The purse—and its contents—were handed over to police.
