Lost something on public transport?

How to track down an item left on a bus, train, tram, or taxi by contacting the right transport operator.

Items left on buses, trains, trams, and taxis around Lake Charles are usually handed in to the operator's lost property team — the trick is contacting the right one quickly.

  1. Identify the operator. Note the route, line, or company and the rough time. Each operator runs its own lost property process.
  2. Submit a lost property report. Use the operator's online form or phone line as soon as possible; recovered items are logged against your description.
  3. For taxis and rideshare, contact the driver or company directly through your booking or app receipt.
  4. Keep your reference. Save any report number so you can chase it up.
  5. Post a listing. Add a listing for Lake Charles in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost: Studs near Lake Charles Civic Center

Hey there, I'm Mason Reed. I lost a small set of gold studs today. I was walking along Oak Street near the Lake Charles Civic Center, by the lakefront, around 3:10 PM when I realized they were missing from my ears. The studs were a gift from my grandmother and carry a lot of meaning; I wore them to a family gathering yesterday. I retraced the promenade by the river and asked a couple of vendors near the park, but I couldn't locate them. They mean a lot to me, and I'm hopeful someone honest picked them up and will return them through the site.

Lost keyboards from my Lake Charles studio

I’m missing two keyboards from my Lake Charles, Louisiana home studio after a gig at the Lake Charles Civic Center. Around 9:45 PM on Friday, June 7, 2024, they were in a black padded case in the back seat of my sedan, and I discovered them gone when I got home. One is a compact MIDI controller with white keys, the other a full-size keyboard in a blue cover. They’re essential for practice and mean a lot to me as I’m rebuilding my home studio.

Lost sheet music near Strand Theatre, Lake Charles

Last Friday at about 4:30 PM, I was leaving after a community choir rehearsal at the Strand Theatre area in downtown Lake Charles when I realized my sheet music was missing from my tote. The binder is pink with a few pencil marks and a faded title on the front. The piece I was practicing for our spring concert is a lively gospel number, and I can't manage the page turns without those sheets. My heart sank because those pages hold weeks of work from rehearsals at the Civic Center. If someone picked it up near the Strand or Civic Center, I’d be grateful to know it’s found.

LOST hats near Lake Charles Civic Center on Broad Street

Hey there, Camille Broussard here. I realized around 3:45 p.m. yesterday that my two hats were gone after I paused to grab a quick bite near the Lake Charles Civic Center along Broad Street, by the lakefront boardwalk. One hat is a tan fedora with a navy ribbon, the other a black knit with a red pom. I retraced my steps along the sidewalk past the amphitheater and toward the riverfront, but I couldn’t find them. It’s tough because the hats carry memory and practicality alike, and I’m hoping someone picked them up and will return them.

Lost medication in Lake Charles, Louisiana

I lost my medication on a bench outside the Lake Charles Memorial Hospital main entrance around 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday. It is a small brown bottle with a blue cap, tucked in a simple plastic case so I would not misplace it, and it has my name on the label. I must have set it down while I asked a nurse a question near the cafe by the lobby, and by the time I turned back it was gone. This medication helps me a lot with daily routines, and I am anxious to have it back where it belongs.

Lost CDs near Lake Charles Civic Center

I am Marie LeBlanc, and I realized my CDs were missing after I stepped away from the Lake Charles Civic Center lakefront around 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The blue case held a mix of classic rock and indie tunes I collected on road trips through Louisiana. It feels empty without them, like losing part of my late night playlists and memories from drives along the bay. If you found a blue CD case near the lakefront, I would be grateful to have it back.
