Silver bracelet with turquoise inlay found
Description
I found a silver bracelet this afternoon around 2:15pm near the fountain outside the Rio Grande Theatre on Main Street in downtown Las Cruces. It's a slim, slightly tarnished sterling bracelet about 7 inches long with a small turquoise inlay and a tiny heart charm engraved on the clasp. The bracelet looks like it's been worn for a while but it's still in decent condition, with a light scratch along the inner side. I picked it up near the benches by the theater entrance and thought it might belong to someone who dropped it. If this sounds like yours, I hope it helps you reconnect with it soon. It's listed under Miscellaneous Jewellery in case that helps.

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.
