美失业男子后院惊现美金15万

A man in northern Illinois found a valuable surprise in his backyard Tuesday afternoon: A duffle bag filled with stacks of $20 bills.

家住伊利诺斯州北部的一名男子于周二下午在自家后院发现一个惊喜：一个被20元面额纸币塞满的行李袋。

As Wayne Sabaj, a 49-year-old unemployed carpenter living in Johnsburg, explained to WGN, he had been looking for broccoli in his garden when he saw the duffle bag. After Sabaj showed the bag to his father, with whom he lives, they decided to alert police.

生活在Johnsburg的Wayne Sabaj是个失业的木匠，今年49岁，他接受WGN采访时说，他是在自家后院找花椰菜的时候发现这个行李袋的。在给和自己同住的父亲看过之后，两人决定先报警。

When the McHenry Sheriff's Department arrived, they discovered a second bag. All told, the bags contained $150,000.

而McHenry警长到达时，又发现了第二只行李袋。据悉这两只行李袋里一共有15万美金。

Sabaj told the Northwest Herald that he briefly considered keeping the money for himself, but he feared not only where the money had come from, but who might be coming back to retrieve it.

Sabaj表示其实自己也想过把这些钱据为己有，但是既担心这些钱的来路，又担心之后会有人来把钱要回去。

"I went and spent my last $10 on cigarettes yesterday, but I turned in $150,000," Sabaj said.

“我昨天把最后的10块钱拿去买了烟，回头立马就有了15万，”Sabaj说。

"I haven't worked in two years. Yeah, I was like, I could really use this money," the man told ABC7. "It would be bank robbery and I'd get caught and say I'd robbed a bank."

“我已经两年没工作了，其实我真的很需要这些钱，”他接受ABC7采访时说。“但是这些钱可能是抢银行抢来的，如果我拿了肯定会被抓，说我也有份参与。”

The bags are now in the custody of police, who are processing them for fingerprints and any other evidence, according to the Northwest Herald.

据Northwest Herald报道，现在两个袋子都处在警方的管控之中，他们会查出袋子上的指纹和其他相关证据。
