Found DeWalt 20V drill with battery
Description
I found a yellow DeWalt 20V Max cordless drill in the parking lot behind the Home Depot on SW College Road in Ocala this afternoon around 2:15pm. It’s in decent condition, with a few minor scuffs on the housing and a slightly worn grip from use. The attached battery is included, along with a small drill bit set that sits in a clear plastic case strapped to the side. There’s a red duct tape label on the battery with the initials 'PP' and a coffee stain near the chuck, which are handy identifying features. I know tools like this can be a lifeline for a project, so I’m hoping to reunite it with its owner soon.

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.
