Lost power tools

Hi, I'm Alex Rivera. I was unloading a trailer in downtown Detroit around 11:30 a.m. on Tuesday, near the Renaissance Center along Jefferson Avenue, when I discovered my power tools had vanished from the truck bed. The set includes a cordless drill, a circular saw, and a weathered tool bag with a few spare batteries. I rely on these tools for my jobs, so losing them hurts my day-to-day; they’re my livelihood, and I'm hoping they’re safe somewhere nearby, perhaps tucked away in the hustle around Eastern Market.

Lost handheld game console at DTW Terminal A.

I realized I must have left my handheld game console behind last Saturday around 9:20 p.m., at Detroit Metropolitan Airport, Terminal A, near the Food Court by Gate 12. It's in a blue case with a cracked screen protector, loaded with a few favorite games. I’ve retraced my steps, checked the lounges and gates, and asked staff, but I haven’t found it yet. This device means a lot to me, not just for travel but for a little escape during long days.

Lost Action Figures near Detroit Metro Airport

Sunday around 9:15 PM I was in my hotel room near Detroit Metro Airport, Terminal A, when I realized two action figures were missing from my dresser. The figures are a bright-red Iron Man with a shiny suit and a small green alien with a dented helmet. They’re tiny, but they mean a lot to me because they remind me of trips and the chance finds that make travel feel personal. I kept them on display by the TV, and I must have left them when I packed for an early flight. If someone turned them in, I’d be grateful to have them back.

Lost silver studs at DTW.

I lost my silver studs at Detroit Metropolitan Airport, McNamara Terminal, around 9:15 AM on Tuesday, as I rushed to catch a flight. They slipped off my ears when I turned a corner near Gate A6 and disappeared into the bustle. They’re small silver studs with pale blue stones; they were a gift from my grandmother, and their absence feels like a hollow in my day. I retraced steps past the newsstand and souvenir shop, but the crowd swallowed any clues. It’s hard not to worry they’ll stay lost until someone else finds them. I hope they’re returned through the site.

Lost sunglasses case with Ray-Ban sunglasses

A SWING sunglasses case (color black) containing 2 items: - clip-on shades (color black) - women's Ray-Ban sunglasses (color black). The images I shared are ones that I found online and they most resemble the items that were lost. The case was lost somewhere along Brush St. and Gratiot Ave. in Detroit.

Found USB drives near Detroit Metro Airport

I was walking near the McNamara Terminal at Detroit Metropolitan Airport around 9:15 am today when I spotted two USB drives lying on the curb by the baggage claim. One has a red cap and the other a black cap, and both looked recently used. One is labeled Project Aurora and the other Family Photos 2023 in neat handwriting. I picked them up and turned them in to the lost and found, hoping the owner sees this post and can reclaim them.
