A 12-year-old girl became popular real fast on Monday, when she brought a backpack filled with 20 thousand dollars into her Taylor, Michigan, school, and began handing out cash to her friends.

According to WXYZ-TV, the school principal got wind of what was up when students began flashing hundreds of dollars around the cafeteria, and she notified the police, who began an investigation. The girl with the cash cache claimed a neighbor gave her the dough; cops are holding the money until its rightful owner owns up.
