Sixth grader takes $20,000 to school

Plenty of questions arose after a 12-year-old girl reportedly handed cash out to her classmates in a Taylor, Mich. school.

ABC affiliate WXYZ reports the girl took $20,000 in cash to school in a backpack on Monday (March 11.)

The girl reportedly gave $200 to one student and $500 to another. That's when school officials found out about the money and the school principal called police.

The girl said she got the money from a friend in her neighborhood. Police seized the money and planned to hold it until they discover the rightful owner and purpose for the money.
