Missing man, 68, blue windbreaker in Hazard
Description
I lost my dad, Henry Carter, yesterday around 4pm. He was last seen in Hazard, KY near the Welcome Center on Main Street, heading toward Perry Plaza. He wears a faded blue windbreaker with a Kentucky Wildcats logo, tan cargo pants, and sturdy brown loafers, and he has a thin salt-and-pepper mustache. A small dove tattoo sits on his inner left wrist, which is easy to spot. Last I saw him, he was talking to a clerk at the Family Dollar on Main Street and looked a bit disoriented. If you spot him, please contact me immediately—he's dealing with medical issues and means the world to our family.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
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.
