Navy blue North Face puffer jacket
Description
I found this navy blue North Face puffer jacket yesterday around 4pm in the parking lot behind the Oceanfront, near the 24th Street entrance in Virginia Beach. It's a men's medium, lightly worn with a few pills on the sleeves and a small scuff on the bottom hem. The hood is lined with light gray fleece and there's a tiny white North Face logo on the chest. Inside the left pocket sits a small fabric patch with the initials 'A.R.' and a tag that reads 'Medium.' If this jacket belongs to you, please reach out so we can arrange a safe pickup; it clearly meant a lot to someone, and I’d love to help reunite it with its owner.

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.
