Lost microwave near Market Square, Roanoke

Hi, I’m Mia Carter. I lost my microwave from the kitchen of my Roanoke apartment. At 9:10 PM on Monday I finished cooking and stepped out to grab a bottle of water by Mill Mountain Park. When I came back inside, the microwave was gone from the counter and the power cord was still warm. It’s a stainless steel unit with a dent on the door and a small sticker on the top left. I rely on it for quick meals after long shifts, and it just isn’t the same without it. If you see something that matches, please keep an eye out around Market Square in downtown Roanoke—I’d be incredibly grateful to have it back.

Lost holiday decorations near Grandin Theatre, Roanoke.

On Saturday around 11:40 am I was loading holiday decorations into the car near Grandin Theatre when a gust knocked a box off the back seat. A string of multicolored lights and a handmade wreath ended up snagged on a light pole along Market Street. I searched the curb and nearby sidewalk, and a passerby helped me pull the remaining pieces from the road, but some ornaments disappeared. These decorations mean a lot to my family, so I hope whoever found them kept them safe until we can be reunited downtown.

Found gray tabby with blue collar

I found a medium-sized gray tabby this morning around 9:15am near the Grandin Theatre on Grandin Road in Roanoke. It has white paws and chest, a slightly crooked tail, and a tiny white scar on its left ear. It’s wearing a bright blue nylon collar with a small silver bell and a white enamel tag that reads 'MILO.' I kept it safe for a bit and gave it some water; the cat seemed friendly and purrs when I pet it. If this is your cat, or you know who it belongs to, email me with details about Milo so we can reunite them.

Brown leather tote with gold hardware

I lost my brown leather Coach tote yesterday around 3pm. It's a medium-sized handbag, about 12 by 9 inches, with gold-tone hardware and a small Coach logo on the front flap. The inside has a bright pink lining and a tiny zipper pocket; there’s also a coffee stain near the bottom edge. I last saw it in the Roanoke City Market area on Market Street, specifically around the parking lot behind the Grandin Theatre. It means a lot to me—it's sentimental and was a gift from my grandmother. If anyone found it, please reach out; I’d be so grateful to get it back.

Left-eye Acuvue Oasys lens, blue edge

I lost my left-eye Acuvue Oasys contact lens yesterday around 3pm, downtown Roanoke, probably near the City Market on Market Street. It's a clear lens with a faint blue edge tint, and there’s a tiny scratch near the center when I hold it up to the light. I wear it daily and rely on this prescription; losing it adds up—replacement costs are steep. If anyone finds it, I’d be grateful to meet in Market Square or at the Roanoke City Market area to pick it up.

Blue Akai MPK Mini 25-key MIDI controller

I found a blue Akai MPK Mini 25-key MIDI controller this afternoon around 3:15pm behind Center in the Square, near the Market Street entrance in Roanoke. It's a compact, black-and-blue USB keyboard with white keys and a few scuffs along the edge. There's an orange sticker on the back with the initials 'A.J.' and a short USB cable still attached. The unit looks well used but functional, with no missing keys. If this belongs to you, I’m happy to hold onto it here in Roanoke until you claim it.
