FORT WORTH, Texas (Star-Telegram) - Some motorists traveling from Fort Worth to Arlington on Wednesday were surprised by unexpected flurries -- not the white stuff, but cold, hard, green cash.

Police say a gun-toting woman robbed the Wells Fargo Bank at 1661 S. University Drive about 11:50 a.m., then sporadically tossed the loot out her car window as she led police on a pursuit into Arlington. One bundle hit officer Danny Miears' windshield.

"He said it kind of exploded like a bird hitting his windshield and feathers going everywhere," said Lt. Jesse Hernandez, a police spokesman.

Deanna L. Keith, 39, surrendered after police boxed in her Ford Focus near Prairie Oaks Drive and the Texas 360 service road, Hernandez said.

LOL! I've often wondered what I would do if I ever came across a huge pile of money just sitting there for the taking. I know the right thing to do would be to turn it in, but that evil little part of me says "losers weepers"!

That would be me too.. I'd most likely turn it in, but part of me would go with the Finders Keepers theory
