I lost my son, Noah Carter, 16, yesterday around 3:15pm near the Diamond Jo Casino along the Dubuque riverfront. He was wearing a bright red hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers with a blue stripe, and he had a blue backpack with a phoenix patch slung over one shoulder. He has a crescent-shaped scar above his right eyebrow and a blue beaded bracelet I gave him for his birthday; he never separates from that bracelet. I'm really worried because he's new to town and tends to wander off, and this area gets busy with tourists in the afternoons. If you see him, message me here or at [email protected] - he's my only child and I just want him back safe.
I lost my gray Nike hoodie yesterday around 3pm near the Main Street Starbucks here in Dubuque. It's a men's size L fleece hoodie, soft and well-worn, with a bright white Nike swoosh on the chest and white drawstrings. There's a small coffee stain near the hem and a tiny snag on the left cuff. Inside the left pocket, a fade of a red thread from a repair I tried years ago is still visible. This hoodie has sentimental value—it's been with me through countless shifts and was a gift from my sister. If anyone found it, I’d really appreciate its return. Please reach out if you saw someone with a gray Nike hoodie.
I lost my gold-tone teardrop earrings yesterday around 3pm somewhere near the Carnegie-Stout Public Library on West 11th Street in Dubuque. They're Luna & Co. brand, gold-tone hoops about half an inch long, with clear cubic zirconia stones along the front and a tiny pearl drop at the bottom. One earring has a small engraving 'D' on the back; the pair is in good condition, just a little tarnished from the rain that afternoon. They mean a lot to me because they were a gift from my grandmother. If anyone found them, I would be incredibly grateful to get them back.
I lost my cream-colored canvas tote bag yesterday around 4pm near the Riverwalk by the Diamond Jo Casino in Dubuque. It's a lightweight tote, about 14 by 12 inches, with a bright orange interior pocket and a sunflower embroidery on the front. The bag is a little worn around the bottom, but the biggest feature is the sunflower; inside there's a small sketchbook and my grandmother's old keychain—things that mean a lot to me. I really need it back; it has sentimental value and contains a few items I can't replace. If you find it, please message me at [email protected]. Thank you.
I lost my silver keyring with a house key yesterday around 3pm near the Carnegie-Stout Public Library on West 11th Street in Dubuque. The keyring is brushed aluminum, about the size of a nickel, with a small blue enamel tag that says 'Home' and a tiny black USB drive keychain I use for work. One house key is a Schlage with a worn red plastic cover on the head, and there's also a generic garage key that rattles when I shake it. It means a lot to me—sentimental value—and I really need it back. If you found it, please get in touch; I'm happy to meet downtown to collect it.
I found a blue 3.5x2 inch business card this afternoon around 2:15pm on the sidewalk outside the Carnegie-Stout Public Library on West 11th Street in Dubuque. The card is for Harbor Ridge Wellness, with a white wave logo and a phone number ending in 4211, plus an email address that's smudged. The back has a neat handwritten note: 'Ask for Mara' in cursive. There’s a subtle coffee stain along the bottom edge and a small crease on the corner, but otherwise it’s in decent shape. I’d love to get it back to the owner—this looks important and I hate the idea of someone losing their contact. If you know who this belongs to, shoot me a message here.
Category: Lost Contact — I found a small contact card this afternoon around 3:45pm behind the Carnegie-Stout Public Library on West 11th Street in Dubuque. It's white with a blue cafe logo and lists the name Lena Park, a mobile number (563) 555-0123, and an email [email protected] on the back. There's a faint coffee stain by the corner and a tiny star sticker that helps identify it. I'd really like to return it to the owner and keep it from being misplaced again.
I found a bearded dragon this afternoon around 3:15pm along the Dubuque Riverwalk near the Diamond Jo Casino. It's about 9-10 inches long, sandy tan with darker brown banding along the back and a hint of orange on the beard. Notable marks: a small white scar over its left eye and a slightly truncated tail tip from a past injury. It was sunning itself on a sun-warmed rock near the path by the river, looking calm but curious. It seems healthy and well-fed, and I know the owner is probably worried by now. If this is yours, DM me here and we can arrange a meetup downtown.
I found a blue U.S. passport this afternoon around 4:15 pm along the riverwalk near the Diamond Jo Casino in Dubuque. The cover is a bit worn, with the gold crest still visible but the corners dog-eared from travel. Inside, the photo page shows a name starting with 'A,' plus a couple of stamped dates from past trips and a faint coffee ring near page 2. There’s also a tiny sticker from a language school on the back cover. It’s a nerve-wracking thing to lose, so I’m hoping to get it back to its rightful owner as soon as possible.
I found a brown leather wallet on the table at the Coffee Warehouse in Dubuque. It looks like it has a few cards inside, along with some cash and a small photo. It was left there around 10 AM on Tuesday. If you recognize it, please contact me to claim it!
