Lost medication near Heritage Square, Flagstaff
Description
I lost my medication last Friday around 4:30 p.m. while walking through downtown Flagstaff. I had just left the bookstore near Heritage Square and stopped to tie my shoe by the fountain when I must have dropped the bottle from my tote. It’s essential medication, and losing it has me worried about missing doses. The bottle is a small white pharmacy bottle with a blue cap, clearly labeled with my name. If it turns up anywhere around Heritage Square or along Aspen Avenue, I’d be grateful beyond words. I’m keeping hopeful and thinking of the kind folks here who look out for others.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
