Palmerton, Carbon County -The U.S. Luge Team was at Blue Mountain in Palmerton three weeks ago.
When they were leaving the area, the team's sleds fell out of their U-Haul.
Michael Miller found the sleds on the side of the road in East Allen Township.
Not knowing what they were doing there, he picked them up in the back of his truck.
When he heard police were looking for the sleds he decided the right thing to do was to give them back.
"Then my buddy called me from work. He said the sleds on your truck. He said the cops are looking for them. Right away I thought I was going to go to jail." said Michael Miller.
Police put Miller in touch with the Olympic team.
The team members were grateful to have their sleds back and gave the miller family team shirts as a 'thank you.'
