A Sacramento boy returned from a family trip to discover his birthday money was missing from his luggage. When he and his mom struggled with airport security, they called Kurtis Ming.

After a birthday trip to San Diego, 12-year-old Jeffery Martin flew home from San Diego a couple hundred bucks richer. He thought his wallet with the $265 bucks in birthday money would be safe inside a bag he checked.

“I had one hundred, three fifties, one ten, and five ones,” he says.

“We got home he was excited to open it up and show me all his birthday money. He brought it in and opened it up and it was just like it had been ransacked,” says Jeffery’s mom Kim.
