DORR, Mich. - An 11-year-old Boy Scout who found and returned a wallet containing more than $800 has received some good karma for his good deed.

 

Thanks to publicity about his action, J.R. Bouterse (rhymes with "doubters") has gotten his own lost wallet back.

 

J.R. found the wallet of Jessica Cutler last month in a church parking lot, not long after losing his own at an Easter egg hunt. Meanwhile, Nancy Bosse and her 6-year-old granddaughter found the boy's wallet at the park where the egg hunt took place.

 

There was roughly $30 in it, but no ID. But they were able to get it back to J.R. after learning of his own act of honesty.

One good turn creates another.
