Black leather Samsonite briefcase, red zipper pull
Description
I found a black leather Samsonite briefcase this afternoon around 2:15pm behind the Pueblo Convention Center on Grand Ave, near the Riverwalk. It's a medium-sized case, about 16 inches wide, with a brass latch and a sturdy handle. The outside has a small scuff on the lower corner and a red fabric zipper pull that makes it easy to spot. Inside, there's a planner, a laptop charger, and a few receipts, but no ID. There's a faint 'AR' initials etched on the inside lid and a tiny dent on the latch. I’m hoping to get it back to its owner—if it’s yours, send me a message with distinguishing details.

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.
