Truck spills cash on California freeway

The money — of various denominations, totaling thousands of dollars — belongs to a bank and must be returned to a police station, he added.

The freeway free-for-all began after a door of the armored truck flew open near San Diego on the Interstate-5, which runs from California’s Mexican border all the way to Canada.

Video posted to social media showed people dashing around the roadway, scooping up cash and even throwing handfuls of greenbacks into the air in celebration.

“Have you ever seen this before?! What would you do?!” posted @demibagby on Instagram. But police warned that the same footage would be used to track down anyone who does not swiftly hand over the cash.
