Missing person: 26-year-old woman with yellow backpack
Description
I'm looking for my sister, Mia Thompson. She's 26, about 5 ft 6 in, light brown hair, wearing a bright yellow rain jacket, black jeans, and white sneakers. I last saw her yesterday around 6:15 PM near Broadway and 4th Avenue in downtown Nashville, right outside the Ryman Auditorium. She was carrying a small yellow backpack with a panda keychain and a reusable coffee cup. She has a small lotus tattoo on her inner left wrist and a tiny scar on her shin from a skateboard fall. She can be a bit anxious in crowds, and she might be disoriented. I'm really worried and just want her safe and back with us. If you've seen her, please contact me immediately.

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.
