This is about half of an Associated Press "Big Story" that was published on their website July 5, 2016.
BOSTON (AP) — A man who left about $187,000 cash in a Boston taxi has been reunited with his money thanks to an honest cabbie, police said Tuesday.
Raymond "Buzzy" MacCausland, a driver for the Independent Taxi Operators Association, picked up a fare with a cast on one leg on Saturday.
"He told me he was homeless and had been living in a shelter for six months," MacCausland said.
At one point, the man got out of the cab to meet a friend intending to return, leaving a bag behind, the 72-year-old MacCausland said. MacCausland waited about 30 minutes, but the man didn't return. So, he drove to the man's hotel to look for him.
Unable to find the man, even with the help of the hotel staff, MacCausland looked in the bag for identification. There he found three bundles of $50 and $100 dollar bills. He immediately drove to police headquarters to turn in the cash.
Police found paperwork indicating that the money was part of an inheritance.
If there's anything else I can do to help increase tourism in a big city near me (I'm in a suburb), just let me know.
Hey, I heard that Chick-Fil-A is still having trouble getting a permit to open one of their very popular restaurants inside the city. It would help tourism a lot if the tourists could have some of their delicious food to eat while they were visiting, don't you think, Mr. Mayor?

These are the fifth, sixth, and seventh paragraphs of an October 3, 2015 article on the Right Scoop website on the topic of a Chick-Fil-A restaurant that opened in Manhattan. The boldfaced and italicized word in the first paragraph was boldfaced and italicized in the article.
Gee, Mayor Marty Walsh, if you allowed a few Chick-Fil-A restaurants to open in Boston, they would also get long lines, your city would also have a lot of extra tax revenue, and a few off-duty Boston Police Officers would get some extra pay as a bonus.
What a shame that your immovable position on gay rights is so important to you.
It's stopping you from improving the Boston economy.
Think about it, Marty. Think and pray about your decision to keep a popular restaurant chain out of the city.

The second Chick-fil-A store in the Seattle suburbs opened in Lynnwood on Thursday morning to another long line, and a smattering of tents where people had camped to ensure their position as one of the first customers."Bellevue has worked with the restaurant to keep lines from building, and Chick-fil-A has hired off-duty police officers to direct traffic."
As is Chick-fil-A’s custom, the first 100 people to enter will receive one free Chick-fil-A Meal per week for a year.
But the store draws crowds even without that enticement.
The city of Lynnwood reportedly has developed a traffic plan to try to avoid the 30-minute backups that occurred in Bellevue after Chick-fil-A opened there in early April. The Lynnwood Chick-fil-A is at 3026 196th St. S.W.
Bellevue has worked with the restaurant to keep lines from building, and Chick-fil-A has hired off-duty police officers to direct traffic.
A third store also has opened in Tacoma.

The location opened at 6am this morning (at the top of this post is a video of some of the first 100 people entering the store). People were tweeting pictures of the line as early as three in the afternoon yesterday. That’s a long, long, but worth it, wait."People were tweeting pictures of the line as early as three in the afternoon yesterday."
Of course, it’s not all rainbows and traditional values. The left would never miss an opportunity to crap all over something, especially if that something is a Christian business.
You see those people lined up? They’re excited to be in the first 100. Because the first 100 people who waited in line for 12 hours are winning free Chick-fil-A for a year, which is slightly better than winning a million dollars. It’s for New Yorkers, because it is a New York City store, and to keep that pure, they are checking zip codes.
