BRACK: What would you have done about all that flying money on I-285?

By Elliott Brack   | It’s not every day that you are driving down Interstate 285, or any other interstate, and you run into an ethical problem.

That’s the thought that came into my mind when hearing about greenbacks being blown out of a cash-carrying armored truck on Interstate 285 near Ashford Dunwoody Road on Tuesday night.  Drivers behind the truck were jerking to the side of the road, jumping out, and frantically picking up currency, some in $100 bills. An officer was quoted: “Ones, five, fifties, you name it, it was there.”
