Description
I found a beige tote bag this afternoon around 2:15pm outside the Monroe Public Library on Oak Street. It's a medium-sized canvas bag with brown leather trim at the corners, and the inside lining is navy blue. I spotted a blue panda keychain clipped to the zipper and a burgundy cardigan tucked over the strap, plus a spiral notebook with the initials 'LJ' on the cover. The bag looks used but in decent shape, no major damage. If this belongs to you, describe the contents or the initials on the notebook to claim it—I’m glad to help get it back to 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.
