MIAMI (Reuters)
Authorities rushed to a Miami-area
hotel this week after a guest's cooler flipped open in the lobby
and
spilled $2 million in cold, hard cash.
U.S. Customs agents said they were called to the hotel in the
suburb of Miami Springs after a guest passed through
the lobby pulling a small luggage cart carrying a large cooler.
The luggage cart suddenly broke, sending the cooler crashing
to the floor. Its lid opened, and -- as shocked hotel
workers watched -- plastic-wrapped bundles of $20 bills littered
the ground.
The guest picked up the bundles and returned to his room
while hotel workers called
police.
When officers arrived, they found the money under the guest's
bed. Questioned about the cash, he reportedly said he
was not its owner and had no idea how it had gotten under his
bed.
Suspecting the money might be linked to drug smuggling,
Customs officials seized the cooler's contents and have
been working since to investigate its origin.
