They contacted the Sheriff and had a deputy swing by after we waited almost an hour. He took the purse and contents along with all our information. You're right, it felt almost as though we had stolen the purse even though it still had all the cash and what not in it. If the lady had been local, we would have just returned it to her. In the future I'm not sure what I'll do. The DW still believes in doing the right thing though, so that's settled haha
