Man finds £350,000 under leaves

A Russian man out walking his dog found £350,000 under a pile of leaves.

Yuri Lavrov found the money stashed in a plastic bag after his pet Labrador began sniffing and scratching as he walked through the forest near Chita in Siberia.

But Lavrov handed the cash over to cops who later identified it as part of haul from a recent bank robbery in the city.

They said the money had been stashed in the forest by one of the robbers who had been planning to come back for it.

Five men have been arrested in connection with the robbery.
