An ample amount of money has been found in Mt Eden over the weekend and handed into police by and honest citizen.
Avondale Police are looking for the owner of the cash, where it was found on the ground around 4pm on Saturday in Mt Eden Village.
Police are not releasing the exact amount of money found, in order to ensure it gets returned to the rightful owner.

"It's nice to know that there are good people around like this, this is a very large sum of money that has been handed in" he said.
Enquiries to identify the owner have so far been unsuccessful.
