From Ed Fletcher:
Rocklin resident Norma Snyder is looking for a good Samaritan.
After getting home from a recent outing to a Rocklin area drug store, she realized she'd left her purse in a shopping cart. She raced back to the store, fearing the worst.
She was told her purse had been taken to the police station. Relieved, a few moments later she had back in her possession the purse back and its contents -- including the large sum of cash she had just withdrew from the bank.
"I would like to find him," she said of the person who turned the purse in to police. "You don't find many honest people."
Doing the right thing is worthy of a reward, said Snyder, who volunteers at the police department.
The Rocklin police didn't get the young man's name, but they described him as being around 16-year-old, with dark hair.
Capt. Dan Ruden said it was refreshing to see someone with honesty and integrity.
To collect the reward the good Samaritan should present himself to the Rocklin Police Department or call 916-625-5455 and be prepared to name the time and place the purse was found and who came with you to the police station.
