Lost: Brooches in Omaha Old Market

I lost my grandmother's brooches while wandering the Old Market district in Omaha on Saturday around 3:15 PM. The brooches are two delicate pieces, one gold-tone with a tiny pearl and the other with blue enamel, that mean a lot to me. I remember admiring them as I stepped into a bakery near 13th Street and must have set them down while I looked at a map. If these turn up, I would be grateful to have them back, as they carry irreplaceable memories of my grandmother.

Lost Hamsters in Omaha-Council Bluffs

I lost my hamsters this morning around 9:15 AM in the Old Market area of downtown Omaha. They slipped from their cage in my backpack as I stopped for coffee on 12th Street near Howard Street; I spotted them for a second by a bench, then they darted. They’re tiny grey fluffballs named Peanut and Noodle, and I’m terrified they’ve wandered into a drain or a hidden corner. I’m hoping a kind reader can help bring them home.

Lost Student ID downtown Omaha

I lost my student ID somewhere between the Old Market and the Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge on Tuesday at 6:15 p.m. I had stopped for a quick coffee at a shop on 12th Street, then wandered back toward the riverfront. When the sun dipped behind the skyline, I realized it was missing and retraced my steps through the brick lanes and the makeshift farmers market stalls. The card matters for campus access and meals, and I’m anxious about replacing it before orientation next week. It has my photo and my name along with a few numbers I can’t replace easily.

Lost Belts in Omaha and Council Bluffs, NE

I lost my Belts while browsing the Old Market in downtown Omaha around 3:45 p.m. on Saturday. I hung a couple of belts on a display rack while I tried on jackets, and when I turned back they’d disappeared from the rack near 12th Street. The belts mean a lot to me—one leather from my grandfather, the other a daily fabric belt—and I’m unsettled without them, especially with work events coming up. If you saw anything near the Old Market District, I’d appreciate any help in getting them back.

Lost holiday decorations in Omaha

I never expected to misplace our holiday decorations, but here we are. I was loading up a tote with red-and-green ornaments, a handmade garland, and a few string lights after decorating the living room around 7:45 p.m. on Friday, December 4, at my friend's apartment near the Old Market in downtown Omaha. I stepped out briefly to grab a quick snack along Harney Street and must have left the tote there. The decorations are sentimental and would mean a lot to bring back for the holidays. I’ve checked nearby cafes and shops in the Old Market and asked around, but they’re still missing.
