I lost my leopard gecko yesterday around 6pm near Center in the Square on Market Street in downtown Roanoke. He's about 4 inches long, tan with brown spots, and has a blue-tinted tail; there’s a tiny crescent-shaped scar above his left eye and a small blue spot on his right hip. He tends to hide under rock décor and inside warm crevices, so if you found him you might've seen him tucked away in planters near the fountain. This gecko is really special to me and I’m worried—please reach out if you’ve seen him; I’d be forever grateful.
I lost my blue dragon plush with orange wings yesterday around 3pm near the Grandin Road playground by the Roanoke City Market. It's about 12 inches tall, super soft, with a small yellow star patch on its belly and a tiny tear on the seam of one wing. The toy has a slightly worn look from lots of bedtime trips, and it really helped my kid calm down at night. It means a lot because it's my daughter's favorite stuffed animal and it was a gift from grandma; if anyone found it, I'd really appreciate getting it back.
I lost my sister, Mira Patel, last night around 9pm after we left the Roanoke City Market Building. She was wearing a pink windbreaker, size 12 youth, gray leggings, and bright pink sneakers, and she had a blue backpack with a panda patch. She's about 4'9" tall, with shoulder-length dark brown hair tied in a loose ponytail, and a small star-shaped birthmark on her left wrist. I’m absolutely terrified and keep calling her name, walking the Market Street area, Center in the Square, and around the alleys behind the festival grounds, but I haven’t seen her. If anyone saw a girl matching this description in Roanoke—please let me know right away; she’s all I care about right now.
I lost my younger brother, Eli Chen, yesterday around 3pm in Roanoke. He's about 5'9", slender, with short black hair and a light complexion. He was wearing a bright blue zip-up hoodie, a gray t-shirt underneath, dark jeans, and white sneakers with a red stripe. He has a small crescent tattoo on his left wrist and wears a green camouflage backpack with a blue patch. We were last seen near the Grandin Theatre on Grandin Road, heading toward Jefferson Street. He's usually gentle but can get overwhelmed in crowds; I’m really worried he might wander off or get separated. If you see him, send me a message here with any information.
I lost my black iPhone 13 Pro in a silicone case yesterday around 3pm near the Roanoke City Market on Market Street. The phone has a small mint-green sticker under the camera and the back is engraved with the initials 'AR'. It's my main device for work and staying connected, so I'm really hoping someone found it. If you found it, reach out to me at [email protected] and we can arrange a quick meet-up to return it.
I found a silver ring with a small blue sapphire this afternoon around 2:15pm near the Market Street entrance to the Roanoke City Market. It's a slim, almost delicate band, about 6-7mm wide, with a subtle leaf engraving on the inner side. The sapphire catches the light and looks vivid when the sun hits it just right. I picked it up because it looked like it had slipped off someone’s finger during a quick stroll by Center in the Square. No name or initials on the band, just that pretty blue stone. If you’re missing a ring like this, send me a DM and we can meet up at Market Square to sort it out.
I found a blue Pyrex glass mixing bowl set with lids this morning around 9:15am behind the Roanoke City Market on Market Street. The bowls are clear glass with a cobalt blue trim, and they nest neatly—the largest is about 3.5 quarts, the middle 2.5, and the smallest 1.5. All three lids snap on snugly, though there’s a tiny chip on the rim of the smallest bowl and a faint pencil mark 'T.M.' on the bottom that might help identify the owner. They look recently used but clean, as if someone grabbed them for a quick kitchen task before leaving. If you’re the owner, I’d like to reunite you with your bowls.
I found an ID card this afternoon around 2:15pm outside the Roanoke City Market Building on Market Street. It's a standard, credit-card-sized plastic card with a blue stripe across the top and a small portrait photo. The name on the card is Priya Kapoor, and there’s a logo for Roanoke County Parks & Rec at the corner. The card has a tiny dent in the lower-left corner and a faint coffee stain on the back near the barcode, plus a round holographic sticker that says 'Volunteer' near the edge. It's in decent shape overall, and I'd really like to see Priya get it back; if you know her or the owner, I hope this helps.
Found a mid-century teak coffee table this afternoon around 2:15pm behind the Bank of America on Market Street in downtown Roanoke. It's about 48 inches long and 20 inches wide, with a single small drawer that has a brass knob. The top shows a few light scratches and a touch of sun fade along the edge, but it's in pretty good shape overall. The legs are tapered with a starburst-inspired flare, and there’s a carved leaf motif on the drawer face—really distinctive. If this belongs to someone, I’d be glad to help reunite you with it.
I found a black leather business card holder this afternoon around 2:30pm outside the City Market Building on Market Street in Roanoke. It's a compact, pebble-textured piece with a single red stitch along the outer edge and a small brass plate on the front engraved with 'J.P.' Inside there are a couple of business cards peeking out, one for a Roanoke-based design studio, and a slightly wrinkled receipt from a coffee shop. The holder shows light wear from daily use, but the initials and the red stitching are still crisp. If this belongs to you, message me here and we can figure out next steps to get it back.
