(Jewish Group) Bronx man who lost his wallet and $1,400 grateful to Hasidic family who returned it
In a weekend marred by an act of hate-filled violence, a Jewish family from Brooklyn did their part to heal the world.
On Thursday, the Hasidic couple from Brooklyn were on an outing on Governors Island with their children when they found a wallet full of $1,400 in cash.
They contacted State Assemblyman Simcha Eichenstein, who was able to track down the owner of the wallet, a man named Christopher Collins from the Bronx.
