Who says Good Samaritans don’t exist?
Certainly not Miki Cooper, a resident of Naples, Fla., who recently left a bag full of valuables on the floor of a metro cab.
The bag, which contained diamond jewelry, an iPod and a digital camera, was discovered by driver Walter Fernandez who quickly tried to find its owner. He remembered the passenger and contacted the hotel. At the same time, Cooper was trying desperately to locate the cabbie known as Walter and finally got his home address. The bag was reunited with its owner and Fernandez was rewarded with $200.
