Traffic comes to a halt as it starts raining money in UAE

Cash worth more than half a million pounds blows through the city and nobody knows where it came from

Road users in Dubai couldn't believe their eyes when it started raining money in the middle of the UAE city.

Hundreds of 500 UAE Dirham notes (27, 000) started raining from the sky on a busy afternoon earlier this month, Wednesday, February 11.

Mysteriously no one could tell where the cash was raining from; officials have yet to give an explanation as to why, or reveal a source of the cash.

The notes were carried by strong winds through the Jumeirah area of Dubai for several minutes, but locals have got no idea where it came from.

The cash rain caused chaos as drivers abandoned their cars in a bid to get some of the raining money.

It is estimated that notes valued between two and three million Dirham were loose - meaning up to £500,000 was blowing in the wind.
