Pink Nike swimsuit top found in Bend
Description
I found a bright pink Nike swimsuit top this afternoon around 3:15pm, tucked under a bench along the Deschutes River Trail behind the Old Mill District. It's a women's size M, with the white Nike swoosh on the chest and a white seam along the bottom edge. The care tag reads 'Made in Vietnam' and there’s a small blue star sticker stuck to the inside label. The fabric looks clean and undamaged, just a bit sun-wrinkled from the ground; I figured someone might be missing it after a river swim. If you're the owner, we can meet near the Deschutes Public Library or at the Old Mill District to pick it up.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
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.
