Black JBL speaker with red KM sticker
Description
I lost my black JBL portable Bluetooth speaker, an Audio & Video Equipment item, yesterday around 3pm. It’s about 6 inches tall, cylindrical with a matte rubberized finish, and there’s a tiny dent along the bottom edge. On the back is a bright red sticker with the initials KM, and there’s a faint coffee stain near the USB-C port. I was at the Kalamazoo Public Library parking lot on Rose Street, right outside the main entrance, then I wandered toward Bronson Park. This little speaker isn’t just tech to me—it's my go-to for weekend rides and podcasts, and it was a gift from my sister, so I really need it back. If you found it, please drop me a note here or contact me at [email protected]. I’d be incredibly grateful.

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.
