ID card with photo found near Roanoke Market
Description
I found an ID card this afternoon around 2:15pm outside the Roanoke City Market Building on Market Street. It's a standard, credit-card-sized plastic card with a blue stripe across the top and a small portrait photo. The name on the card is Priya Kapoor, and there’s a logo for Roanoke County Parks & Rec at the corner. The card has a tiny dent in the lower-left corner and a faint coffee stain on the back near the barcode, plus a round holographic sticker that says 'Volunteer' near the edge. It's in decent shape overall, and I'd really like to see Priya get it back; if you know her or the owner, I hope this helps.

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.
