An airport cleaner who found an iPad and a bag containing £8,000 worth of cash has given away his reward to a homeless woman.
According to NBC News, Patrick Morgan, who works at Florida's Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, found the iPad and bag of money in a bar and immediately handed it in to airport officials.
Soon afterwards, he spotted a distressed tourist searching for the bag and directed him to the lost property department.
The tourist, who was travelling from an apparently successful gambling trip to Las Vegas, rewarded Patrick with a £40 tip, which Patrick then gave away to a homeless woman. He also gave some of it to a fellow airport cleaner.
Patrick has been honoured for his outstanding kindess and honesty with a special plaque from his bosses as well as £390.
