BOSTON — A toll worker on the Massachusetts Turnpike is figuring out what to do with a $100 bill a driver handed him.
Gary Bonarrigo said a woman gave him the money in a greeting card Wednesday evening. The card said "share" with a drawing of a star.
Massachusetts Turnpike Authority spokesman Mac Daniel said agency rules prohibit toll takers from accepting gifts.
He said the money will be donated to a charity selected by Bonarrigo and his fellow toll collectors.
