Melbourne taxi driver finds $110,000 in cab

A Melbourne taxi driver has set an example of honesty after returning $110,000 in cash to the lucky owners who left the money in his cab.

Lakhwinder Singh Dhillon was shocked to find 11 bundles of $10,000 on the back seat of his maxi taxi after he dropped off nine drunk passengers to the Crown Casino.

He took the cash to a local police station and the owners were tracked down.

He told Fairfax radio they were 'very happy' to be reunited with their lost fortune.

Lakhwinder received a cash reward of $500 from the extremely grateful group.
