Lost travel bags near Fort Concho, San Angelo
Description
Last Friday around 7:45 PM I realized my travel bags were missing while I was walking along the Concho River path toward Fort Concho in San Angelo. I had just checked out of a downtown hotel and left the bags unattended on a bench near the riverwalk cafe, and when I turned back they were gone. The bags hold clothes and documents for an upcoming trip, and I’m stressed about the mess and the delay. I’ve retraced my steps from the Fort Concho grounds to the riverfront, asking around at a couple of shops, but there’s no sign. If someone picked them up, it would mean the world to me to have them back.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
