Description
I found a blue inhaler in a gray zippered case this afternoon around 2:15 PM outside the Palm Springs Public Library on Sunrise Way. The inhaler has a bright orange cap and a small white pharmacy sticker that reads 'Albuterol 90 mcg,' plus a scribbled number on the label. The case shows light wear, with a tiny red heart sticker on the front and a couple of scuffs along the zipper. It looks well cared for and clearly personal, which is why I’m hoping to get it back to its owner soon. If this might be yours, drop a line here and we can meet up near the library to swap it back.

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.
