A World of Wheels attendee may be missing some cash, according to police.

Winnipeg police say a large sum of money was located at the Conventions Centre on March 23.

The individual who lost the money is asked to call 204-986-6246 or visit 245 Smith Street to have it returned.

But police say they will be asking “qualifying questions” to ensure you are the rightful owner.

Every year, car enthusiasts descend on the World of Wheels event to admire the hundreds of vehicles on display.
