Found an item? Your responsibilities

What to do when you find someone else's property — your responsibilities and how to return it safely.

Found something in Mohave County? Handling it responsibly protects both you and the owner. Rules vary by location, but the principles are consistent.

  1. Make a reasonable effort to find the owner. Check for ID, contact details, or anything that identifies who it belongs to.
  2. Don't assume it's yours to keep. Keeping found property without trying to return it can have legal consequences. When in doubt, hand it in.
  3. Hand valuables to the authorities. Report significant or high-value finds to the police non-emergency line for Mohave County; they'll log it and may issue a reference.
  4. Store it safely. Keep the item secure and unchanged while you try to return it.
  5. Post a found listing. Add a found-item listing for Mohave County with enough detail for the real owner to identify it — while holding back one verifying detail.

Silver hoop earrings with turquoise accents

I found a pair of small silver hoop earrings with turquoise beads this morning around 9am in the parking lot behind the Walmart on McCulloch Boulevard in Lake Havasu City, Mohave County. They’re about 1 inch in diameter, with slim sterling-silver hoops and a tiny turquoise bead on each hoop. One bead has a tiny chip and there’s a faint scratch near the clasp, so they’re a little worn but still cute. They look like they might have been a gift or hold sentimental value to someone, and I’d love to reunite them with their owner. If this sounds like yours, send me a message here and we’ll figure out pickup.

Found vintage coin and stamp collection

I found a vintage coin and stamp collection this afternoon around 3:15 pm in the parking lot behind the Kingman Public Library on Beale Street, Mohave County. The haul sits in a small, dusty display case with a green felt interior and a brass latch. Inside there's about 60 coins from the 1940s through the 1960s, plus a red leather-bound stamp album with well-thumbed pages and a few air-mail stamps still attached. One noticeable feature: a brass tag on the display case engraved with 'D.R.' and a loose sticky note tucked in the stamp album's front pocket reading 'Property of D.R. 1972'. The items look gently weathered but well cared for, and I really hope to see them go back to their owner.

Blue-glazed ceramic owl sculpture

I found a ceramic owl sculpture this afternoon around 2:15 pm behind the Walmart on Airway Avenue in Kingman, Mohave County. It's about 6 inches tall, 4 inches wide, with a glossy cobalt blue glaze speckled with tiny gold flecks. The piece is hand-painted and bears a small 'L Rivera' signature on the bottom, along with a faint crack at the base that doesn't go through. It's clearly a handmade item and looks like it might mean something special to the owner. If this belongs to you, I’d love to coordinate a safe pickup from the Walmart parking lot.

Found blue reflective dog harness

I found a blue reflective dog harness this afternoon around 3:15 PM behind the Walmart on Stockton Hill Road in Kingman, Mohave County. It's a medium nylon harness with a black quick-release buckle and a lime-green leash clipped to it. The harness has a white paw-print logo on the chest strap and a small snag near the neck from a rough play session. The overall condition is good, only light scuffs from outdoor use. I know how stressful it is to misplace a pup's gear, so I'd love to return it to its owner. If this sounds like yours, tell me the brand tag, color details, and where you last had it.

Black Nike running shoes with neon swoosh

I found a pair of black Nike running shoes this afternoon behind the Walmart Supercenter on Stockton Hill Road in Kingman, Mohave County. They’re a size 9, black with a neon green swoosh and a white sole that’s a little scuffed from outdoor use. One shoe has a small blue sticker under the tongue and a faint chalk mark on the heel—easy to spot if you know them. They’re in decent condition overall. If these belong to you, I’m glad to help get them back and I can meet you in the Walmart parking lot to verify ownership.

iPhone 12 Pro, space gray, teal case, 128GB

Found a phone this afternoon around 4:15pm behind the Circle K on Andy Devine Ave in Kingman, Mohave County. It's a space gray iPhone 12 Pro with 128GB of storage, and it wears a teal silicone case with a tiny coffee stain on the back. The screen protector is cracked along the top edge, and the wallpaper shows a desert sunset with a small phoenix sticker on the case as a unique tell. Battery readout was around 60% when I picked it up, and I know how stressful it is to lose something this personal. If this is yours, drop me a DM in the app so we can meet near the Kingman Splash Pad and return it.
