Description
I found a teenage girl wandering near Uptown Station on Main Street in Bloomington around 4:15 yesterday afternoon. She's about 5'3", wearing a light-blue hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers, and she carries a turquoise backpack with a unicorn keychain. She also has a small star tattoo on her left ankle. She seemed overwhelmed and asked repeatedly where her mom was, so I stayed with her until Bloomington-Normal security arrived. If this might be your missing person, check the app for more details and descriptions to see if it matches.

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.
