An honest Texas teenager who thought she had lost out on $2,000 in unclaimed cash she turned in was given double that amount by an anonymous donor. Shepton High School freshman Ashley Donaldson had come across the money in the parking lot at Pavillion Center in Dallas in February. Despite her family's financial straits, she turned it in, thinking the money would become hers if no one claimed it. But Dallas officials changed city policy and tossed the $2,000 in its general fund after it went unclaimed. WFAA-TV, Dallas, aired a story Wednesday on the honest teen's unfortunate turn of events, and within hours a mystery benefactor from Fort Worth stepped in and gave her and her family $4,000. Donaldson, her four siblings and parents had moved from Colorado to Texas last November and until two weeks ago were living in a one-bedroom apartment.
Witnesses at a Waffle House restaurant in Augusta, Georgia, said police and firefighters were called when an air conditioning repair man found someone living on the roof. Firefighters said they were unable to determine how the man had gotten onto the roof or how long he had been there when they were called to remove him Tuesday.
