USB drives lost on UNL campus
I’m Daniel Morales. I was on UNL City Campus by Love Library around 3:20 p.m. last Friday when two USB drives slipped from my backpack and disappeared into a crack between the steps. The drives hold weeks of lab data and client backups I can’t redo, and losing them makes my stomach drop. I retraced the route from the library entrance to the coffee shop, and back again, but there’s no sign of them. I’m worried someone could access the files, and I’m hoping a kind passerby turned them into the campus lost-and-found. If you’ve seen them around the Love Library area, please help me get them back.
Lost Radios in Lincoln, please help.
I lost my Radios this afternoon around 3:15 p.m. near Haymarket Park, just off 14th Street and O Street. The Radios are two portable units in a tan canvas bag, one with a faded label from a family project. They mattered to me because they remind me of my grandfather and our old hobby, and I’m anxious to get them back. The area was busy with shoppers and vendors, but I must have set them down while chatting with a friend. If you found them, I’d be grateful to be reunited with these pieces of memory.

Found utensils in Lincoln, near Haymarket
I found someone's utensils this morning, around 7:45 a.m., near the Haymarket in downtown Lincoln. A tote with spatulas, a rolling pin, and a few ladles lay on the brick sidewalk by 9th Street, likely dropped in the morning rush. I picked them up and stood by the Haymarket cafe, hoping the owner would spot them soon. It felt right to return something useful rather than leave it behind, and I left the utensils safe on the bench with a note for the finder to check this listing.
Lost sheet music from quiet Lincoln recital
I lost my sheet music after a late practice at the Lied Center in Lincoln at 7:15 p.m. on Wednesday. I’d left the folder on a chair near the stage, the blue cover with my name penciled on the back. The pages hold the pieces I’m preparing for a university audition, and I’m a bundle of nerves about missing a page that could shape my entire performance. It’s driving me nuts knowing those sheets are out there somewhere, especially as dusk settles over the Haymarket and I picture the folder resting on a chair by the stage.
Lost stamps near Nebraska State Capitol, Lincoln, 3:15 PM
Yesterday around 3:15 p.m., I realized my stamps were missing while I walked back to my car near the Nebraska State Capitol on K Street. They were tucked in a small red tin inside my tote, a keepsake from my grandmother's old collection. I’d just paused for a photo at the Sunken Garden and then browsed through a few stalls in the Haymarket, and somewhere between there and the Capitol steps they vanished. I feel a mix of foolish and wistful, because those stamps carry a personal story I’m trying to hold onto.
Lost silver Yamaha flute with blue case
I lost my silver Yamaha student flute yesterday around 3pm in front of the Lied Center for the Performing Arts, near 12th and O Streets in Lincoln. It’s a compact wind instrument, about 26 inches long, with a few light scratches along the foot joint and a tiny dent near the head joint. It lives in a blue hard case with a black zipper, and I tied a small red ribbon to the handle so I’d notice it. Inside, the lining is blue. There are engraved initials 'AP' on the lip plate and on the lid of the case. It’s sentimental—it was a gift from my grandmother—and I really need it back. If you found it, a quick message would mean the world to me.
Navy scarf with fox pin, lost in Lincoln
Yesterday around 3pm I lost my navy blue cashmere scarf after grabbing a coffee near the Capitol building on 14th Street in Lincoln. It's a Uniqlo scarf, about 70 inches long, really soft but a bit worn at the ends. It has a small silver fox pin attached near the left corner, one of a kind. The scarf means a lot to me—it's a gift from my grandmother and I wear it every chilly day. If anyone found it, could you email me at [email protected]? I just want to get it back, it's a favorite and a little sentimental piece I hate to part with.
Red Santa hat with white fur trim found
Found a red Santa hat with white faux fur trim this afternoon around 2:15pm outside Bailey's Bakery on O Street in the Haymarket. It's a felt hat, adult size, with a tiny pine-needle pin tucked under the brim and a faint sparkle on the fur. The hat looks gently worn but overall in good condition—the lining is soft, with no rips. I was walking from the parking lot toward the fountain when I spotted it on the sidewalk by the brick planters. If it's yours, message me here with a quick detail about the pine pin or a photo to claim it.
Ray-Ban blue tortoise glasses with engraving
I found a pair of Ray-Ban glasses this afternoon around 3:15pm on O Street, just outside Indigo Bridge Books & Café in Lincoln's Haymarket. They’re blue tortoise acetate with rectangular frames. The lenses are clear, but one has a tiny scratch in the top corner. The inside of the left temple is engraved with the initials 'M.K.' and the hinges show light wear. Overall, they’re in decent condition; no case or cleaning cloth found. If this looks like yours, shoot me a message here and we’ll figure out how to get them back.
Red Samsonite 28-inch hardside suitcase
I lost my red Samsonite 28-inch hardside suitcase yesterday around 3pm near the State Capitol on 14th Street in Lincoln. It’s a sturdy polycarbonate shell with a black TSA lock and a few scratches on the front from travel effort. Inside there’s a navy packing cube, a gray scarf, and a bright blue luggage tag with my initials AK. The zipper pulls are slightly bent, and there’s a small dent on the bottom edge. It has sentimental value for me—this was my go-to travel bag, and I’d be really grateful to have it back.
Brass pocket compass on red paracord bracelet
I lost a small brass pocket compass attached to a bright red paracord bracelet yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on O Street in Lincoln's Haymarket. The compass face is scratched and the rim has a tiny dent, and the paracord is a bit worn at the clasp. There’s a tiny black bead on the bracelet that makes it easy to identify. It belonged to my grandfather and carries sentimental value, and I really need it back to keep his memory close.
Red/black Wilson tennis bag with rackets
I lost my red and black Wilson tennis bag yesterday around 3pm outside the Haymarket Park tennis courts on O Street in Lincoln. The bag is a medium-sized model with two graphite rackets visible at the top; one racket has a bright blue overgrip and a tiny orange zipper pull, the other sports a worn black grip. Inside there’s a yellow microfiber towel with a Nebraska Huskers logo and a small coffee stain on the bottom. It’s in decent condition overall, but the loss has sentimental value because I use it for weekly league play and really need it back. If you found it, please reach out—happy to trade or offer a reward for its return.
National Geographic magazine with orange cover found
I found a National Geographic magazine with a bright orange cover this afternoon around 3:15pm near the downtown Lincoln library entrance on O Street. It's the June issue from a few years back, the spine is creased and the pages show light wear. Inside the front page there's a small sticker with the initials 'R.S.' and a bookmark sticking out between pages 42-43. It smells like coffee and it clearly mattered to someone. If this is yours, I can drop it at the library desk or we can meet at a nearby cafe; I just want to get it back to you.
Red Nike running shoes, size 9
I lost my bright red Nike running shoes yesterday around 3pm outside the Starbucks on O Street in Lincoln's Haymarket district. They're size 9, red mesh uppers with white soles, a blue reflective heel tab, and a tiny pink paint speck on the toe. The left shoe has a slightly stretched lace loop from a race, and the Nike swoosh shows a bit of wear. They’re my everyday training shoes and have sentimental value because they helped me finish my first half-marathon; I really need them back. If anyone found them, please reach out—I'd be grateful to get them back to keep up with my training.
