ALBUQUERQUE, Aug. 2 (UPI) -- An Albuquerque man said he was in a hurry to leave his home and drove off with a bank-bag filled with nearly $5,000 on the roof of his car.

The man, who asked to be identified only as Jason, said he left home with the gray bank-bag on top of his car Friday and it was gone by the time he reached the bank, KRQE-TV, Albuquerque, reported Monday.

"Bonehead move of the year. I was loading my children in the car and I put the money on the roof and drove off with it," Jason said. "Part of it was for mortgage, but the rest we're kind of doing a remodel on the house."

Jason said he retraced his route but was unable to find any sign of the bag.

"Maybe the right person will find it and know that times are tough and that someone needs this," he said.
