Navy tote purse found near Union Station, Ogden
Description
I found a navy blue faux-leather tote this afternoon around 3:15pm near the Union Station front plaza on Wall Ave in Ogden. It's about 14 inches wide and 11 inches tall, with gold-tone hardware and a tan shoulder strap. Inside there's a small star-pattern lining, a coin purse attached to the interior zipper, and a tiny enamel crescent-moon pin on the zipper pull. There’s a faint lipstick stain on the inner pocket and a fabric tag with the initials 'L.C.' I’m hoping to reunite it with its owner; if you recognize these details, drop me a line at [email protected] so we can arrange pickup.

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.
