FAIRFIELD, CT — Fairfield police are holding onto $1,200 in the cash it was left at a local store, according to law enforcement.

The money was left at Bob’s Stores, 889 Post Road, by an elderly man who came to the business March 7 to buy $10,000 in clothing to send to Ukraine, according to police.

“He left saying that he had to go to a doctor’s office but prior to leaving left $1,200.00 in cash as a ‘down payment,’” police said, noting the man indicated he would be back the next day. “He never returned and is unable to be identified.”

Police placed the cash into evidence March 8, according to authorities.
