Found a set of radios
I was walking along Market Street in Wilmington around 4:15 p.m. last Saturday when I spotted a rugged black case tucked behind a bench near Independence Mall. Inside were two radios, one with a dented corner and a frayed cord. I picked everything up, brought them home, and have kept them safe on my shelf since, hoping they belong to someone who uses them for work. I’d love to see the owner reclaim them—if this sounds like your gear, check the model numbers and see if they ring a bell.

Lost GPS Devices in Delaware, Delaware
I realized my GPS devices were missing around 3:40 p.m. yesterday while I was walking along Market Street in downtown Wilmington, near Riverfront Park. I had paused to check a route on my phone and must have left them on a bench by the old statehouse. The devices are small, with black casings and a white sticker on the back. I'm hoping someone who found them can keep them safe until I can return for them; I rely on them for work trips and emergencies.
Lost travel visas in Delaware, DE
Hi, I'm Jordan Reed. I misplaced my travel visas during a visit to downtown Wilmington around 11:20 a.m. today, near Market Street Station and the riverfront. They were tucked inside a light-blue folder in a slim plastic pouch that I carry every trip. The folder bears my name and a few critical dates, and losing it has me scrambling to reassemble things. I’m hoping someone honest picked it up and kept it safe, as these documents are essential for my travel plans.
Lost USB drives on Market Street, Wilmington
Hi, I’m Sarah Mitchell. This evening, around 5:40 PM, I was at a quiet coffee shop on Market Street in Wilmington, Delaware, printing notes for a meeting. I set two USB drives on the table and stepped away for a moment; when I returned at 6:05 PM, they were gone. The drives contain work slides and a folder of family photos, and losing them feels personal and stressful. If anyone found them, I’d be grateful if they could keep them safe until I can get back to the shop to ask about them.
Tan leather Coach tote with blue scarf
I lost my tan leather tote yesterday around 3pm near Market Street by the Grand Opera House in Wilmington. It's a mid-sized Coach tote with gold-tone hardware, and I always keep a sky-blue scarf tied to the handle. Inside are my burgundy wallet, sunglasses, and a small lavender perfume sample. The lining has a faint sun-bleached pattern and there’s a tiny fox charm on the zipper pull. This bag was a gift from my grandmother, so it really means a lot to me. If anyone found it, I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back.
Charcoal hoodie with white logo, found near Market Street
Found a charcoal gray Nike hoodie this afternoon around 2:15pm in the bike rack area behind the Chase Bank on Market Street in Wilmington, Delaware. It's a size L with a faded white Nike swoosh on the chest and a little fraying on the cuffs. Inside the left pocket there's a small sewn patch that reads 'Cape Henlopen Surf Club'—definitely a standout detail. It was lying on the ground after I paused to stretch during my walk along the Riverfront. If this belongs to you, I’m happy to get it back—just drop a line here and we can arrange a quick meetup nearby.
Gray tabby cat with blue collar, missing
I lost my gray tabby cat yesterday around 3pm. He tends to wander near Main Street and Academy Street in Newark, Delaware, sometimes slipping into the UD campus area. He’s about 9 pounds, with a gray tabby coat, white chest, and a small notch in his right ear. He wears a bright blue reflective collar with a tiny bell and a heart-shaped tag that says 'MILO.' He also has a small white dot on his left hind paw and a tiny scar under his chin from a past scrape. I’m really worried—he’s my only pet and he needs his daily medication. If you see him, please contact me; he means the world to me.
Blue backstage pass and concert ticket stub
I found a blue backstage pass on a matching lanyard, this afternoon around 2:15pm behind the Grand Opera House on Market Street in downtown Wilmington, Delaware. The lanyard is royal blue with white 'Live Nation' lettering, and the pass has a small holographic seal. The ticket stub is perforated, with the event date printed and a faint coffee stain near the corner. This looks like a keepsake more than a generic pass, and I’d really like to get it back to its owner if possible.
Missing person: Maya Patel, 5 ft 6 in, Wilmington
I lost my sister Maya Patel yesterday around 3pm. We were near the Riverfront Market on West Market Street in Wilmington, Delaware when she wandered off after saying she'd step into a shop for a quick look around. Maya is about 5 ft 6 in, with shoulder-length dark brown hair, wearing a light blue denim jacket over a white t-shirt, black jeans, and white sneakers. She has a crescent moon tattoo on her inner left wrist and wears a silver hoop earring in her right ear. I'm really worried—she has a medical condition and relies on daily meds; if anyone sees her, reach me at [email protected].
Pink unicorn plush with lavender mane
I lost my pink unicorn plush yesterday around 3pm near Market Street in Wilmington, Delaware. It's a 12-inch Aurora plush unicorn, soft pink fur, lavender mane, and a shiny silver horn. It has a small blue ribbon tied around its neck and a tiny purple heart stitched on its chest. It was a gift for my daughter and has sentimental value; she’s really attached to it. If anyone found it, please reach out; I’d really appreciate getting it back.
Blue knit beanie with snowflake pattern and fox patch
I found a blue knit beanie this afternoon around 2:15pm near the Riverfront Promenade along Market Street in Wilmington, Delaware. It's a medium-weight acrylic hat, a bit worn, with a bold white snowflake pattern and a small fox patch stitched on the brim. It’s clearly a winter staple, maybe a favorite for chilly days on the boardwalk. There’s a tiny red thread snag near the cuff, which I thought could help identify it as unique. I’m posting this here because it looks like someone’s been missing it; if this belongs to you, I’d be glad to arrange pickup or drop-off at a nearby cafe in the area.
Gray-white dwarf hamster with blue collar and bell
I lost my gray-and-white dwarf hamster, Nutmeg, yesterday around 3pm near the Newark Public Library on Market Street in Newark, Delaware. Nutmeg is tiny, the size of a ping-pong ball, with a bright blue collar and a small silver bell that jingles when she scurries. She sports a white stripe down her forehead and fluffy fur that's slightly scruffy after a day on the run. This little one has sentimental value—it's my daughter's pet and a gift from her grandmother—and we’re really hoping someone who found her will be kind enough to reach out. If you’ve seen Nutmeg, please email [email protected]; I’d be forever grateful to get her back.
Beagle mix with blue collar missing near Walmart, Dover
I lost my beagle mix yesterday around 3pm near the Walmart on North Dupont Highway in Dover, Delaware. He's about 40 pounds, tri-color with brown ears, white chest, and a black saddle, and he has a small white star-shaped patch on his right hind leg; his tail ends in a white tip. He wears a blue nylon collar with a brass tag engraved 'Mochi' and he’s usually friendly but a bit skittish around strangers. This dog is our family companion and means the world to my daughter, so we’re really hoping for his safe return. If you’ve seen him or picked him up, please text me and avoid sudden approaches.
Blue enamel dragon pin from Crystalline Pins
I lost my blue enamel dragon pin from Crystalline Pins, part of a limited 'Delaware Beasts' series. It's about 1 inch tall, cobalt blue enamel with a gold dragon silhouette, mounted on a black backing card. The pin is in good condition except for a tiny nick on the tip of the dragon's wing, and the back is stamped with CP-13. I was out yesterday around 3pm, strolling along Market Street near the Grand Opera House in Wilmington, Delaware, after stopping into a small vintage shop. This pin is important to me—it was a gift from a friend who moved away, and it's one of my favorites from the local artist scene. If someone found it, I'd really appreciate getting it back.
