I was working a construction job on a bridge.. We dug out the small creek under the bridge and found a car and bank safe. Funny part was the cops came and pretty much just said put it back where you found it lol..
My dad found a high powered rifle and a scope in a field once when he was doing some telephone repair work (after retiring from the military he was an I & R man for a phone company). My dad called it in, and a local small town cop came and picked up the rifle, no gloves, and dumped it into his trunk. My dad knew the cop and said he wouldn't be surprised if it became his personal rifle.
I think there was an assassination of a civil rights leader in the nearest big city around that time...
