The owner of the violin by Antonio Stradivari was returned a treasure worth $ 4 million forgotten in a New York taxi.
The owner of the expensive instrument, violinist Philip Quint, took a taxi to New York's Battery Park neighborhood on April 21 at night. Getting out of the car, the musician forgot to take with him a violin made by Stradivarius in 1723. The treasure was left lying in the back seat of the car all night.
The violin was found only by the evening of the next day. The owner of the taxi returned the tool to Quint, who burst into tears with joy. And an honest taxi driver was awarded a medal.
