Missing man, 28, dark blue hoodie near Bronson Park
I'm Priya Patel posting for my family. Our brother, Daniel Kim, 28, has been missing since yesterday around 6:15pm. He was last seen in downtown Kalamazoo, Southwest Michigan, near Bronson Park, walking north on West Lovell Street toward the Arcadia District. He wore a dark blue pullover hoodie, black jeans, and bright red sneakers, and carried a light gray backpack. He has short black hair, a crescent-moon tattoo on his inner left wrist, and a small scar above his left eyebrow. We’re really worried, and any sighting in Southwest Michigan would mean the world to us. Please contact me with any information.
Vintage 1977 Luke Skywalker figure, mint on card
I lost my vintage 1977 Luke Skywalker action figure, mint on the original card, yesterday around 3pm in Southwest Michigan, after browsing Hall's Hobby Shop on State Street in downtown St. Joseph, near Silver Beach. The figure is in its blue Kenner packaging with the basic 'Star Wars' logo; there’s a small crease along the top-right corner of the card and a faint coffee stain on the back. It means a lot to me—it was my dad's favorite piece and now part of my own growing collection, so I really need it back. If anyone found it near the shop, the marina area, or around Silver Beach, please reach out.

Emerald green budgie missing near St. Joseph Lighthouse

Dark sunburst violin with red bow
I lost my dark sunburst violin yesterday around 3pm near the Kalamazoo Institute of Arts on S. Kalamazoo Mall, right by Bronson Park.

There’s a small repair patch on the lower bout and a pencil inscription inside the f-hole that reads ‘MP 04/12’—you’d only notice it if you peek. This violin means a lot to me because it was a gift from my grandmother, who passed away last year, and I’ve been playing it every day since then. If someone found it, I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back; it’s basically my lifeline to making music.
