LOST

Red Coach crossbody with cherry embroidery

I lost my red Coach crossbody bag yesterday around 3pm outside the Buffalo & Erie County Public Library on Lafayette Ave. It's a red leather mini crossbody, about the size of a paperback, with a gold-tone chain strap and a small cherry blossom embroidery on the front. Inside there's a worn photo of my grandmother in the main pocket and a lipstick tube with a faint rose scent—the bag is a little scuffed at the bottom corners from city days. This bag means a lot to me, a sentimental gift, so if you found it please reach me at [email protected].

Black Akai MPK Mini MK3 MIDI keyboard

I’m hoping someone picked up my black Akai MPK Mini MK3 25-key MIDI keyboard yesterday around 3pm outside the Anchor Bar on Main Street in Buffalo, near Chippewa Street. It’s a compact, matte-black controller with white letters and a red USB-C cable tucked under the case. There’s a small scratch along the right edge and a tiny sticker that says 'Studio A' on the bottom side—easy clues for identifying it. It was a gift from my late grandfather, so it has real sentimental value and I really need it back. If you found it, please reach out.

Black North Face backpack with red zipper pulls

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.

Young man in blue hoodie missing near Delaware Park

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.

Blue-tinted Acuvue Oasys contact lens (left, single)

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.

Blue Yamaha snare drum with dragon sticker

I found a blue Yamaha snare drum with a dragon sticker on the shell, a dent on the rim, and a black nylon drumstick bag tucked beneath. I came across it this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot behind the Anchor Bar on Main Street in Buffalo. The drum looks well used but still in decent shape, and the dragon sticker makes it really distinctive. If this belongs to someone, I’m happy to return it to its owner, especially since it clearly has gig history and a story behind it.

Gold-tone hoops with pearl charm

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 hand-painted ceramic vase near Canalside

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.

Yellow cockatiel with gray wings, leg band

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.

Limited edition blue vinyl LP

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.
