Found shoes by Delaware Park, Market St

As I was walking my dog along Market Street this afternoon, around 4:25 p.m., I found a pair of shoes abandoned on a bench by Delaware Park. They're blue sneakers, size 9, with a white sole and a small scuff on the toe. The laces are slightly frayed, but they're otherwise in good condition. I picked them up and brought them to the Delaware Library front desk, hoping the owner would recognize them and claim them. I know how frustrating it is to misplace something so personal; I felt a bit of relief to do the right thing. If the owner sees this, please check with the library staff.

Lost enamel pins in Delaware, DE

Hi, I’m Maya Scott. I misplaced a small pouch of enamel pins while downtown Delaware around 2:30 pm on Sunday. The pouch had pins from a college club, plus a silver heart and a pinecone badge—mementos of good days. I must have dropped it near Main Street Market while I stopped for a quick coffee, and I didn’t notice until I got home. They’re sentimental, and I’d be grateful if someone who picked them up kept them safe until I can claim them.

LOST: Suits in Dover downtown

I realized at 6:30 pm yesterday that my suits were missing from the coat closet in downtown Dover, Delaware, right by the old post office building. They’re two charcoal suits on matching hangers, one with a faint water stain on the lapel and a spare tie tucked into the pocket. I left them there after a quick meeting, thinking I’d grab them before heading to the airport, but when I returned they were gone. Losing these suits isn’t just a hassle; they’re what I’ll wear for a big conference next week, and I’m stressed about it. If anyone saw them or moved them by mistake, please leave a note here.

Lost carry-ons near Market Street, Delaware

I lost my carry-ons on Market Street in Delaware, DE around 11:30 pm yesterday after getting off the bus. The set includes a black rolling suitcase and a small tan carry-on, both scuffed from travel and labeled inside with a sticky note. I remember passing the old post office and turning onto Riverfront Way, hoping I hadn’t dropped them along the curb. The bags hold important documents for a job interview and a family photo album, so I’m anxious to get them back as soon as possible.

Found hand tools by Delaware Riverfront, Wilmington

Yesterday at 2:30 p.m., I found a small toolbox on a bench by the Wilmington Riverfront, near the big clock at Riverfront Park. Inside were several hand tools—hammer with a red handle, pliers, screwdrivers, and a tape measure. I gathered them up and kept them safe, hoping to reunite them with the owner who might be mid-project. If you’re missing tools, please check here and post through the site so we can arrange a pickup.
