Dad, daughter snag long lost wallet fishing at Shore

OCEAN CITY - When Chuck Lindberg dropped his wallet while riding a personal water craft in Corson's Inlet 19 years ago, he gave it up for lost.

Until this week.

Richard Santo, of Newtown Square, Pa., and his 13-year-old daughter Katie, pulled the billfold up while fishing in the inlet on Monday.

It was their only catch of the day.

Inside they found some ID and credit cards.

Santo says his daughter searched an Internet phone book, located an address just down the street from their Ocean City summer home and returned it to Lindberg, 42.

Lindberg was surprised to get it back.

"I said, "I'd offer you a reward, but honestly there's nothing of value in there,'" Lindberg told the Press of Atlantic City. "I told him, 'There's definitely some good karma coming back to you from that.'"

Lindberg is keeping some of the IDs as souvenirs of another time and a different hairstyle.
