Cabdriver returns tourist's $21,000, refuses a reward
PATCHOGUE, N.Y.— A New York City cabdriver is being praised for returning more than $21,000 lost by a visitor from Italy.
Felicia Lettieri, 72, left her purse in a Manhattan taxi on Christmas Eve. It contained traveling money for her and six relatives.
The cabbie drove about 50 miles, to a Long Island address he'd found in the purse. No one was home, so he left his phone number and later returned with the money.
The driver, Mukul Asaduzzaman, declined a reward.

I wish the world had more people like this.
