Boy finds pounds 10k and gives it in.

Byline: BRENDAN WILLIAMS

A TEENAGER who found pounds 10,000 cash stuffed in two bags at a bus stop was yesterday hailed Britain's most honest schoolboy.

Nathan Gittings, 14, ran home with the stash and told his mum: "Look what I've just found."

He immediately phoned the police to tell them he had stumbled across a fortune.

Mum Sharon, 36, said: "Nathan had never seen so much money in his life.

"He was saving up to buy a fishing rod - but he didn't touch a penny of it.

"Instead he bought the bags home and put them on the kitchen table.

"We just sat there staring at it waiting for the police to come."

Trustworthy Nathan from Hengoed, near Caerphilly, South Wales, found the cash in plastic bags at a disused bus stop.

Detectives later traced the grateful owner and returned the money.

Gwent Police said: "Nathan did very well - he must be the most honest schoolboy in the country."
