Description
I found a bracelet this afternoon around 3:15pm outside the Lensic Performing Arts Center on West Palace Ave, just off the Santa Fe Plaza. It's a gold-tone metal bracelet with turquoise inlay along the center, about 7 inches long, showing a bit of wear from daily use. A tiny sun charm dangles near the clasp, and the inside is engraved with the initials 'AL' and a small heart. It looks well-loved and has a warm, sentimental feel. If it's yours, drop a note with the initials and roughly when you last wore it - happy to help get it back to you.

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.
