(UPI) -- A janitor who found $325 million worth of gold bars in a garbage bin at a South Korean airport might be allowed to keep the precious metal, police said.
The janitor wwill still receive 5-20 percent of the gold's value if the owner comes forward, police said.
The seven gold bars were found April 26 in a trash can at Incheon International Airport in Seoul.
Investigators said the gold bars are believed to have been ditched by two men who were transporting the bullion from Hong Kong to Japan. The men are believed to have abandoned the gold because they were worried about being searched by customs.
Police said the owner must come forward to claim the gold, or else the $325 million worth of precious metal will become property of the janitor who found it under the country's finders-keepers law.

I doubt whomever abandoned $325 million will be coming back - most likely because they're dead for failing their mission. If if they did, he gets to keep 5% which is still $16.25 million.
Win one for the good, hard working, janitor !
