Berry pickers find thousands in woods
VAXJO, Sweden, Aug. 7 (UPI) -- Swedish police said berry pickers working in a forest outside the city of Vaxjo discovered at least $14,000 that had been buried among the trees. Police said the money, which had apparently been dug up by an animal, was discovered by the berry pickers in July and immediately turned over to authorities, Swedish news agency TT reported Friday.
Investigators said evidence found at the scene indicates the money may have been stashed in the wooded area after a home burglary. They are asking for the public's help in identifying the owner or owners of the money.
