Man Finds A Stolen Wallet With A Wedding Ring In It, But That’s Only The Beginning Of The Story
There are some incredible people on our planet and Jimmy Gilleece from North Carolina is one of them. Jimmy is the owner of a bar Jimmy’s at Red Dogs. A few weeks ago he received a message from a woman from New Mexico, who lost her wallet at the bar with a $10,000 ring in it. Jimmy was quick to help and looked through the video footage of their security cameras. Luckily the cameras captured a young boy taking the wallet, that was left on a bench near the bar.
Jimmy shared the image of the thief on the social media while the woman reported the wallet as stolen to the Police Department. With the help of the locals, Jimmy found the thief who happened to be 17-year-old Rivers Prather. At that time Rivers was living in the forest so he took the wallet because he was hungry and had no money for food. After taking the cash, he threw away the wallet into an ocean channel.
Some people would leave the rest to the police and be done with it, but not Jimmy. He hired divers to look for the wallet and to everyone’s surprise, they found it with the ring still inside.
After finding out about the hardships that the young teen was going through, Gilleece took Rivers into his home and helped him find a job.
I think it’s fair to say that we need more amazing people like Jimmy.

Share on FacebookI still believe in humanity. Although sometimes it is difficult. Not this time :)
I agree it's very hard. This story is a big plus though. 😁
Load More Replies...Story notwithstanding, but seriously: who puts a 10,000 $ ring into a wallet and then does not (literally) guard it like gold?
