   If you see flashing lights in your rear-view mirror and you happen to be   
   driving on Montreal's South Shore, make sure to pull over promptly — you may   
   get $100 out of it.   
   Longueuil Santa cop   
      
   Two anonymous donors gave $5,000 to the Longueuil police force and asked them   
   to give them out to unsuspecting drivers.   
      
   The surprise gift comes a week after a similar stunt was pulled by a Montreal   
   officer after a friend gave him $5,000 to distribute.   
      
   Police officers in Longueuil began distributing the bills on Dec. 23 and will   
   hand out their last c-notes on Dec. 24.   
      
   The anonymous donors asked that officers try to identify people who would   
   benefit the most from the gifts, and that they give the money out by pulling   
   people over.   
      
   Officers in a news release said one man pulled over for the gift told the   
   officer he would be sending the money right away to his family in Haiti.
