Micah Speir: Garbageman returns $12000 lost check to school ‘Video’

Micah Speir, GarbageMan Hailed as ‘Hero’ After Returning $12K in Lost Checks to School.

KOMO-TV in Seattle reports that Waste Management employee Micah Speir was picking up scattered trash next to some bins when he found a number of checks made out to Lawson Elementary School.

Principal Dorian Manza says he met Speir on his route and gratefully took the checks back. The funds were from a fund-raising drive and a Parent-Teacher Association member had accidentally dropped them in the trash along the garbage truck’s route. When Manza tried to tip Speir for his good deed, the man turned him down.

Speir says his only concern was doing the right thing and returning the money to the school.
