The man responsible for billions of dollars in Massachusetts public money had his own wallet stolen.

Treasurer Tim Cahill, who's running for governor as an independent, says someone swiped the wallet and a GPS system from his car parked in the driveway of his Quincy home late last month.

Cahill tells The Patriot Ledger that he came home from a long day on the campaign trail and just forgot to lock his vehicle.

He says there was no cash in the wallet and he canceled all his credit cards before they were used. Someone mailed his license back and he bought a new GPS system.

He says the GPS is critical for his campaign that brings him to all corners of the state.

Cahill's car was stolen from the driveway in 2001.
