Drums lost near Headwaters Park, Fort Wayne

I lost my drums after a late practice at Fort Wayne Community Arts Center on Wells Street, near the Market District, around 11:45 p.m. I left them on a sturdy black chair in the back room while I packed up, and when I turned around, they were gone. The kit is a five-piece black matte finish, with a bright blue sticker on the bass drum and a dent in the rim from a hard hit last week. They mean the world to me—playing them helps me unwind after long days at school and work in this city.

Found two dog leashes near Promenade Park, Fort Wayne

I was walking along the riverfront near Promenade Park around 5:40 p.m. on Tuesday when I found two dog leashes lying together behind a bench. One leash is blue with paw prints, the other red with stripes. There wasn’t a tag on either, so I tucked them into my bag and kept an eye out for someone calling them. I’d love to reunite them with their owner and I hope this helps the right person find them.

Found kittens in Fort Wayne

I was walking along Jefferson Boulevard by the Allen County Public Library around 9:15 p.m. yesterday when I spotted two tiny kittens huddled behind a dumpster near the side entrance. They looked scared but healthy, mewing softly as the streetlights spilled onto the pavement. I brought them home, kept them warm, and fed them, hoping to find their family. If these two belong to someone, please reach out through the site so they can be reunited.

Lost sheet music near Promenade Park, Fort Wayne

Hi, I'm Owen Carter. I lost a stack of sheet music around 6:10 p.m. last Sunday while leaving Promenade Park near the Fort Wayne Museum of Art. I must have set the folders down on a bench by the river and forgot as I hurried to meet a friend across Main Street. The blue cover is labeled with my initials and a few pencil markings I used for a rehearsal. They matter a lot to me, and I’m hoping they didn’t wander far.

LOST: Equipment for Various Sports – Fort Wayne, IN

Last Friday around 6:50 p.m. I realized my gear for various sports was missing after a casual game at Headwaters Park in Fort Wayne. The item is a blue rolling duffel stuffed with gear for several sports: a soccer ball, a couple of tennis rackets, shin guards, and a dusty basketball. It was leaning against a bench near the fountain as the crowd started to thin after sunset. These items are essential for my weekend leagues, and I’ve been anxious about them disappearing; I’d be grateful to have them back through the site.

Lost drones near Promenade Park

I was testing two drones above Promenade Park around 6:45 p.m. last Saturday when a gust knocked one toward the tree line by the Fort Wayne Museum of Art. I ran along the Rivergreenway hoping to reel it back in, but the other drone drifted off in the same direction and I lost sight of them. Those drones carry weeks of footage I can't replace—one is a newer model with a bright orange prop guard and the other is a backup with a cracked screen. I’m worried a passerby might have picked them up thinking they were someone else. Please keep an eye out near that area.
