A woman trying to help out a homeless man on The Plaza ended up giving away a lot more than a little change. She accidentally gave him her engagement ring, but the twist to the story is what the man did with it.
People hearing this story might think the homeless man's luck would similar to winning the lottery - you live under a bridge, then, the next thing you know, you end up with platinum and diamonds. For some, it could be a life changer.
Billy Ray Harris got that change and then some last Friday.
"The ring was so big that I knew if it was real, it was expensive," Harris said.
He didn't notice it in his orange cup until almost an hour after its original owner unzipped her wallet and dumped her change into it.
"My rings were bothering me, so I put them in my coin purse," Sarah Darling explained.
Darling said she didn't realize what she'd done until the next day.
"I was so incredibly upset because, more than just the value of the ring, it had sentimental value," she said.
