Lost handheld and console near Riverwalk, Wilmington

I lost my handheld and console after a late game night at the Riverwalk on Front Street in downtown Wilmington around 9:10 pm last Friday. My handheld is a silver PSP-like device with a small sticker of a rocket; the console is a compact retro Nintendo Switch, with a cracked screen protector. Those devices contain hours of saved progress and a few family photos I kept for comfort while traveling; losing them felt like losing a little piece of home. I retraced steps along the Front Street promenade, checked the riverfront benches near the fountain, and asked the nearby arcade bar staff if anyone had turned them in, but nothing turned up.

Blue hardcover mystery novel with red ribbon bookmark

I found a blue hardcover mystery novel this afternoon around 3:15 pm on a bench along the Riverwalk near the Bellamy Mansion on Market Street in Wilmington. The cobalt blue cover features a silver fox, and a bright red ribbon bookmark peeks out from between the pages. Inside the front cover there's a small sticker with the initials 'C.T.' and a faded library receipt tucked between pages near 112. The spine is creased and a few corners are worn, but the book is otherwise in good shape. It seems clearly loved—if you're missing it, send me a message here and we can work out a pickup near Front Street or the Riverwalk.

Black Kindle Paperwhite with blue case

I lost my black Kindle Paperwhite last night around 7pm near Market Street's Riverwalk Shops in Wilmington. It's a 2018 model with a slightly scuffed corner and a blue silicone case, plus a small white star sticker on the back. It holds a bunch of travel notes and some work documents, so it's really important to me. I was walking along the riverfront from Water Street toward the carousel near the Crown Street intersection, and I must have dropped it somewhere in that crowded area.

Gray knit scarf with silver anchor charm

I lost my gray knit scarf yesterday around 5:30 pm while walking along Market Street by the Wilmington Riverwalk. It's a medium-length wool blend, soft and slightly fuzzy, with a small silver anchor charm at one corner and a thin red thread woven along the edge. The ends are a bit frayed from wear, and there's a faint diagonal stripe from last winter's sun. It was a gift from my grandmother, so it feels really sentimental to me and I’d be crushed to never see it again. If you found it, I’d be grateful to get it back—email me at [email protected] and we can arrange a drop-off in Wilmington.

Tan leather briefcase with red laptop sleeve, found downtown

I found a tan leather Samsonite briefcase this afternoon around 3:15 pm outside the Coffee Cup cafe on Front Street by the Riverwalk in downtown Wilmington. It's a bit scuffed at the corners and the leather on the handle shows some wear, but the zippers work smoothly. Inside there's a bright red laptop sleeve and a few papers with a 'Quarterly Report' heading; there's also a small brass tag on the outer pocket engraved with 'JL'. If this belongs to you, message me here on the app and we can arrange a pickup near the Riverwalk.
