Golden Syrian hamster Milo, lost near North Market

I’m Priya Patel, and I lost my golden Syrian hamster, Milo, yesterday around 3pm. Milo is about 4 inches long with golden-brown fur and a white blaze on his forehead. He’s wearing a tiny blue collar with a small brass bell. I last saw him near the North Market on Spruce Street in downtown Columbus, after he slipped out of his cage while I was unloading groceries. He’s a bit shy but very curious once he warms up to you. He’s part of our little family and has sentimental value to my daughter, so I’m really hoping to find him tonight. If you’ve seen him or can help, please text me or email me with a sighting.

Black JBL wireless earbuds in blue case

I lost my black JBL wireless earbuds in a blue charging case yesterday around 3pm near the North Market on Market Street in Columbus. They are JBL Tune 125TWS; the left earbud has a tiny dent on the outer shell, and the case features a small lightning bolt sticker on the back that's barely visible. I was hopping between stalls when they slipped from my pocket during a quick phone call. They mean a lot to me because they were a gift from my dad, and I really need them back. If you found them, please drop them at the North Market Lost & Found or message me.

Dark brown Yamaha violin in black case

Yesterday around 3pm I realized my Yamaha full-size violin was missing after I finished a quick practice outside the North Market on High Street in the Short North. It's a dark brown violin in a black rectangular hard case, with a small dent on the lower bout and a burgundy chin rest. Inside the lid there's a faded star sticker near the hinge and the bow hairs are a touch frayed—those markings help me identify it. This instrument has sentimental value; it was a gift from my late aunt and I really need it back for a gig this weekend. If you found it, please contact me—I'm hoping to bring it home soon.

Black Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses with red temple detail

I was biking through downtown Columbus yesterday around 3pm when I realized my black Ray-Ban Wayfarer sunglasses were gone. They have matte black frames, a small scratch on the left lens, and red interior temple tips that show when you tilt them. The gray zip case has a white 'R' on it and a tiny sticker with my initials 'PS' on the inside. They were a gift from my sister and I really need them back — sunny days are rough without them, and they mean a lot to me. If you found them anywhere around High Street, the North Market, or near the Scioto Mile, please reach out. I’d be so grateful to get them back.

Silver-tone Seiko watch with black leather strap

I lost my silver-tone Seiko watch yesterday around 3pm near the North Market on Spruce Street in downtown Columbus. It's a 42mm stainless steel case with a black genuine leather strap that's a bit worn and a blue second hand that stands out on the white dial. The back is engraved with 'J.T.' and there’s a small scratch on the bezel from a bike accident last month. It was a gift from my mom and carries a lot of sentimental value, so I’m really hoping to find it. If anyone found it, please reach out—I’d be forever grateful and can describe the caseback engraving more to confirm it’s mine.

Blue Adidas size 5 soccer ball found near North Market

I found a blue Adidas size 5 soccer ball this afternoon around 4:15pm behind the North Market on Market Street in Columbus, OH. It’s blue and white, a bit scuffed on one panel, and the valve has a tiny red sticker with the initials 'JS'—nice little identifying detail. It still holds air and looks like it was used in a casual pickup game, nothing major broken. I’d love to get it back to its owner; if you think it’s yours, tell me the color details and the initials on the valve sticker to verify.

Found mini projector remote with green rocket sticker

I found a small projector remote yesterday around 3pm in Columbus, near the North Market on Vine Street. It's palm-sized, matte gray plastic, and on the back there's a bright green sticker with a tiny rocket drawing. A couple of surface scratches decorate the top, and the battery door feels a tad loose, but it powers on fine when you press the main button. On the back I also noticed a light etching: 'PK' and a date—pretty likely yours. It seems to belong to a mini projector setup, and I’m hoping to reunite it with its owner. If this sounds like yours, send a message through the app and we can arrange a pickup near North Market.

Blue Nike swim shorts with neon logo

Found a pair of Nike swim shorts this afternoon around 2:30pm near the Scioto Mile, behind COSI, along the riverfront in downtown Columbus. They're blue with black panels and a white drawstring, size L, with a neon-green Nike logo on the left leg. The fabric looks clean but a bit salt-stained from the pool, and there's a small snag along the back pocket seam. Inside there's a tiny tag with initials 'A.R.'—not sure if that helps, but it's one of the few identifying details. If these belong to someone, I hope they get them back soon.

Blue US passport found near North Market downtown Columbus

I found a blue US passport this afternoon around 3:30pm on the sidewalk outside the North Market entrance on High Street in downtown Columbus. The cover is navy blue with the Great Seal, a bit scuffed and there’s a coffee ring near the lower edge. Inside the back pocket, there’s a torn boarding-pass stub and the name on the data page appears as 'Priya Patel' with an Ohio transit sticker tucked behind it. It seems in decent condition otherwise, just a little worn from travel. If this belongs to you, I’d really like to help return it—I can drop it at the North Market desk or meet nearby.

Charcoal gray Brooklinen duvet cover

I found a charcoal gray Brooklinen duvet cover this afternoon around 2:15pm near the Columbus Commons on Rich Street. It's a king-size, soft and has no rips, but there's a faint coffee stain along the inner seam and a small monogram 'C' embroidered on the edge. The fabric feels luxurious and the color is true to the photos—no pills or fuzz. I picked it up off the sidewalk after noticing it draped over a bench by the bike rack. If this belongs to you, please reach out with a matching detail and we can arrange pickup. I’d like to get it back to its owner.
