Joey Coyle
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Joseph "Joey" Coyle was an unemployed longshoreman in Philadelphia who, in February 1981, found $1.2 million in the middle of the street after it had fallen out of the back of an armored car. His story was made into the movie Money for Nothing starring John Cusack and also a book written by Mark Bowden titled Finders Keepers: The Story of a Man Who Found $1 Million.
Joey struggled with a drug addiction for most of his adult life. He committed suicide by hanging himself in his basement.
