Description
I lost my navy blue North Face parka yesterday around 3pm after volunteering near the Old State Capitol and walking back to my car in the parking lot behind the Baton Rouge River Center on River Road. It’s a navy parka with a bright orange lining and a faux fur trimmed hood. There’s a Louisiana outline sticker near the hem with the year 2018, plus a small tear near the left cuff from a curb. It’s a bit worn but keeps me warm, and it has sentimental value because it was a gift from my mom. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate getting it 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.
