An Oregon driver made it rain on a local highway after he tossed out an estimated $200,000 from his family’s bank accounts “to bless others,” according to reports.
After troopers located McCarthy’s car, the generous motorist told them that he was “doing well and wanted to bless others with gifts of money,” Oregon State PoliceTroopers, who were worried that people looking for cash in the dark on the interstate could cause an accident, managed to convince McCarthy to stop tossing the cash.
Oregon State Police worried that people looking for cash on the interstate in the dark could cause accidents. “He could have been charged in a situation like this for danger being created because of his actions—disorderly conduct, potentially reckless endangering, but most likely disorderly conduct,” Andrews said.
