MOORHEAD, Minn. (AP) ? Authorities have decided to return a $12,000 tip to a Minnesota waitress that police believed was drug money.
Stacy Knutson of Moorhead says a customer told her she could keep a takeout container she left behind at the Fryn' Pan restaurant. The box turned out to contain $12,000 in bills in various denominations.
Police initially told her she could keep the money if no one claimed it, but later said it was part of a drug investigation.
On Thursday, after the case drew national attention, Assistant Clay County Attorney Michelle Lawson told reporters the money could not be tied to a criminal investigation, and that Knutson would get a check.
Knutson says she believed the money was an anonymous gift from someone who knew her family had severe financial difficulties.
