Chinese man gets 10 years for stealing from crash site
BEIJING (Reuters) - A Chinese villager has been jailed for 10 years for keeping 80,000 yuan (5,600 pounds) in cash he found in a plastic bag at the scene of a car accident, local media reported on Tuesday.
In April, Qin Li found a black plastic bag in front of a diesel truck that had crashed nearby his home in the northeastern province of Liaoning. He took the bag home and discovered the cash inside.
"After four days, Qin Li's parents deposited 70,000 yuan into two separate bank accounts, and kept 10,000 for personal use," the Beijing News reported.
Qin's lawyer argued that he had not stolen the bag surreptitiously, discovering the cash only upon returning home, and that his actions should come under the lesser charge of embezzlement.
Last week, a man in the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou was jailed for life for taking funds from a malfunctioning ATM.
