14-year-old Kai Nakamura missing near Falls Park
Description
I lost my 14-year-old son, Kai Nakamura, yesterday around 6:15 pm. He was last seen near Falls Park on the Reedy, by the Liberty Bridge, wearing a gray hoodie with red drawstrings, navy joggers, and blue sneakers with orange accents. He has a small mole on his left cheek, a faint scar above his right eyebrow, and he wears braces; he also carries a blue North Face backpack with several patches. I’m really worried—he’s normally talkative with family but gets nervous around crowds, and Falls Park is a busy area after sunset. If you spot him, please alert the Greenville Police or use the app’s tip feature; I just want him back safe.

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.
