I don’t care about money being spent. I just want it back.”Scott shared the news of his wallet on social media with thousands sharing to help the gutted dad.A post on the dad’s Facebook reads: “My wallet was stolen from inside my work today in SCS in Kilmarnock, I couldn't care less about the bank cards or anything in it but I was given the wallet as a gift from Laura from Mia before she passed away and I cherish it more than anything.The Ayrshire Live app is available to download now.Get all the local news in your area – plus features, football news and the latest on the coronavirus crisis – at your fingertips 24/7.The free download features the latest
