Gray knit scarf with navy stripe and monogram
Description
I found a gray knit scarf this afternoon around 2:30pm in the parking lot behind the Groton Shopping Center on Route 1 in Groton, CT. It's about 60 inches long and 8 inches wide, with a subtle navy stripe along the edge. It looks handmade, and there's a tiny 'K' monogram embroidered on the inside near the tag; there’s also a small moth hole near the far end. It seems like something someone would miss in this chilly weather, and I’d love to get it back to its owner. If this is yours, describe the monogram and the approximate length or any distinctive stitching so we can arrange a pickup.

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.
