An unemployed man picked more than vegetables in his garden Monday.

Wayne Sabaj found $150,000, in two bags, in his backyard garden. The money was made up of $20 bills. Sabaj, a former carpenter, is currently unemployed, and moved to live with his father in McHenry County, Ill.

"It wasn't my money," said Sabaj to WGN-TV. "What am I going to do? I don't know where it came from. With my luck it came from a bank robbery, and I'd be charged with bank robbery!"

"I walked in, showed my dad and said, 'Now we're in trouble,'" Sabaj said to the Northwest Herald.

Rather than be blamed for stealing the money, Sabaj reported his findings to the police, who concluded that the money was gotten by ill means.

“We are speculating that it was taken from a residential or commercial burglary,” McHenry County Undersheriff Andrew Zinke said to the Chicago Daily Herald.

The yard around Sabaj’s father’s property is not fenced in, according to msnbc.com, and it was noted that people routinely cut through the yard.

Police, who think that the bag has not been in the backyard for long, have begun investigating the bags for fingerprints. If an owner is not found, it will then be up to the police to determine whether or not Sabaj may keep the money.
