Lost my black North Face backpack yesterday around 3pm near the Canalside boardwalk by Erie Canal Harbor in Buffalo. It's a medium-sized bag with matte black fabric, red zipper pulls, and a small scuff on the bottom corner from daily use. Inside there's a blue inner pocket and a tiny maple-leaf keychain on the zipper. I’ve got a few personal notes and a photo of my daughter tucked into a clear sleeve, plus a compact camera I use for weekend shoots. It has sentimental value and I’d really appreciate it being returned.
I lost my younger brother Noah Kapoor yesterday evening after a family gathering in Buffalo, NY. He's 17, about 5'8", wearing a bright blue hoodie and a gray cap when last seen, with a small star tattoo on his left wrist and thin rectangular glasses. He was last seen around 6:15pm near Canalside, heading toward Elmwood Village along Delaware Avenue, carrying a blue backpack with a Buffalo patch. This is really scary for us, given the backpack held his favorite notes and school ID—if anyone has seen him, please let us know.
Hey, I lost my blue-tinted Acuvue Oasys contact lens yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Elmwood Ave at Allen Street in Buffalo. It's just a single lens from my left eye, with a subtle blue tint that helps me spot it if it lands on the sidewalk. There’s a tiny scratch along the outer edge that makes it look a little cloudy in bright light. I was wandering from the Elmwood Village area toward the Canalside side when it slipped out of my pocket after brushing past a bike rack by the corner. I really need it back— I can’t drive or work properly without my lenses, and I’d be grateful for any help finding it.
I lost my blue Ventolin inhaler yesterday around 3pm near Canalside along the Erie Canal Harbor in Buffalo. It’s a blue inhaler with a white mouthpiece, and the body has a few scratches from dropping it on the pavement; you can still see 'Ventolin HFA' on the side. The cap is a bit loose and slides off easily, which makes the item easy to spot if someone picks it up. This inhaler is essential for my asthma, and I’m really anxious about not having it, especially with the chilly Buffalo weather. If anyone finds it, please text me and I can meet downtown or at Canalside to pick it up.
I lost my small brass compass pendant yesterday around 3pm outside the Anchor Bar on Main Street in Buffalo. It's about the size of a coin and hangs on a worn brown leather cord; the rim has a tiny dent and the back is engraved with the initials 'AC'. This pendant feels sentimental—my grandfather used to travel with me, so it means a lot to me. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it back; I’m happy to meet near the bar or arrange a quick exchange for a small reward.
Found a pair of gold-tone hoop earrings with a small pearl charm this afternoon around 2:15pm in front of the Anchor Bar on Main Street in Buffalo. They’re about 1.2 cm hoops, with a delicate leaf engraving along the outer edge and a single cream-colored pearl dangling from one hoop. The finish is a touch brushed rather than shiny, and I noticed a tiny scratch near the clasp on the earring. I picked them up and tucked them safely in a small pouch, hoping to reunite them with the owner; if they’re yours, tell me the last place you wore them and the engraving detail to verify.
Found this morning around 11am on the sidewalk outside the Canalside entrance on Main Street in Buffalo. It's a small hand-painted ceramic vase, about 8 inches tall, glossy cobalt blue with gold swirls and a white floral accent along the rim. There are a couple tiny chips on the rim and a faint signature on the bottom that reads 'K. Lin'. It looks well cared for and clearly belonged to someone, so I want to help reunite it with its owner.
I found a yellow cockatiel this afternoon around 4pm in Buffalo, NY, near the Elmwood Village bakery on Bidwell Parkway. It's a medium bird, bright yellow with gray wings and a white face, about the size of a small pigeon, and it has a tiny red leg band marked with 'A12'. The bird seemed a bit stressed but curious, and I kept a gentle hold while I looked for an owner nearby. I brought it to the Buffalo Humane Society as a safe step, but I wanted to post here in case the owner recognizes it by the leg band. If it's yours, describe the leg band number and any unique marks, like a blue feather on the tail.
Found a limited edition blue vinyl LP this afternoon around 4pm in the Canalside courtyard area behind the Erie Canal in Buffalo. It's a 12-inch gatefold with a striking blue swirl vinyl and a white cover that has a small crease along the bottom edge. The label on the disc reads 'Columbia Special Products' and there’s a faint 'Promo Copy' stamp on the back. It’s clearly a collector’s item; I can tell someone spent time building this set, and it looks like it hasn’t seen much play. If this sounds like yours, I’d love to help get it back to you—posted here to reunite it with its rightful owner.
I found a gray Nike hoodie this afternoon around 3:15pm near the Canalside district, along Main Street by the Erie Canal Harbor in Buffalo. It's a size L, fleece-lined hoodie with a bold red Nike swoosh on the chest and black drawstrings. The jacket is in decent shape, with a couple of loose threads at the cuffs and a small ink stain on the inside pocket. Inside the label there are handwritten initials 'MD' that look like they were added by the owner. If you're the owner, tell me the initials on the tag or the color of the drawstrings, and we can arrange a meetup to return it.
