Navy Brooklinen duvet cover with white piping

I lost my navy Brooklinen duvet cover (Queen size) with white piping yesterday around 3pm outside the Starbucks on Trumbull Street, near Union Station in New Haven. It’s a soft cotton sateen, and in the lower-right corner there’s a small monogram 'PH' and a tiny ink blot along the bottom hem that makes it easy to recognize. It was a gift from my grandmother and holds sentimental value, so I’d really appreciate getting it back. If you found it, I’d be grateful to hear from you.

Missing person: Amira Patel near Sterling Memorial Library

I lost my sister, Amira Patel, yesterday around 3pm near Sterling Memorial Library on Prospect Street, Yale campus, New Haven. She's about 5'5", with shoulder-length dark brown hair and a red puffer jacket over black jeans and white sneakers. She has a small crescent-moon tattoo on her right wrist and wears a silver hoop in her left ear. If you’ve seen her, I’m really worried—she has asthma and sometimes gets disoriented when separated from family. Drop me a message at [email protected].

Blue Nike running jacket with lime stripe

I lost my blue Nike running jacket yesterday around 3pm outside the Yale Bookstore on College Street. It’s a men's medium, navy blue with a bright lime-green reflective stripe along the zipper, and a small white Nike swoosh on the chest. The jacket is in decent shape, just a minor snag near the left cuff from a rough branch during a run. Inside the pocket there’s an embroidered set of initials AP. This jacket has sentimental value; I wore it through most of my spring training, and I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back.

Navy tote bag with red fox patch

I lost my navy tote bag yesterday around 3pm outside the Sterling Memorial Library on Yale's campus, as I walked down Elm Street toward the New Haven Green. It's a medium-sized tote, navy canvas with an orange zipper, pink lining, and a distinctive red embroidered fox on the front. Inside there's a small fabric tag with the initials 'PP' in cursive and my sketchbook plus a pressed forget-me-not from a friend—sentimental stuff I really need back. If you found it, dropping it at campus security or sending me a message at [email protected] would mean the world to me.

Silver clip-on guitar tuner with blue case

I’m hoping someone picked up my silver clip-on guitar tuner—Korg Pitchclip 2—with a blue silicone sleeve and a tiny cat sticker on the back. I last had it yesterday around 3pm on the Yale campus, near the Beinecke Library steps on High Street, just before I ducked into a nearby coffee shop. It still works great, and I use it every practice; it’s sentimental because it was a birthday gift from my sister. If you found it, a quick message on this listing would mean the world to me—I’d love to arrange a safe meetup near Union Station or on campus. There’s a small dent on the bottom edge, easy to spot.

Blue North Face hoodie found near Yale Bookstore

I found a blue North Face hoodie this afternoon around 4pm outside the Yale Bookstore on College Street in New Haven. It's a men's size L, fleece-lined hoodie in solid cobalt blue with a black North Face logo on the chest and a lime-green drawstring. Inside the front pocket there's a small embroidery of 'NH' and a little coffee stain near the hem. It's in decent condition overall, just a bit wrinkled from being tossed on a bench. I figure someone must be missing it after a quick campus errand, and I'd love to help get it back to its owner.

Blue-and-yellow parakeet found near New Haven Green

I found a blue-and-yellow parakeet this afternoon around 2:45pm near the New Haven Green, by the corner of College Street and Elm Street. It's the size of a typical budgie, with a vivid yellow head and cobalt-blue body, and a distinctive white crescent patch on its left wing. A blue leg band with a tiny serial number is visible on its right leg. This little guy clearly belongs to someone, and I’d love to get him back to his owner. If this is yours, message through the app and we can set up a quick meet-up near the Green.

I found a black leather briefcase on the sidewalk outside of a coffee shop on Chapel Street in downtown New Haven. It looks relatively new and is possibly a designer brand. The briefcase has several compartments and contained some paperwork with a name I couldn't fully read. I'm hoping to find the owner as soon as possible.
