Black rectangular eyeglasses with blue temple tips
Description
I found a pair of black rectangular eyeglasses this afternoon around 3:15pm in the parking lot behind Hy-Vee on 2nd Ave in Worthington, SW MN. They’re black matte plastic frames, about medium width, with clear lenses and a small scratch along the bottom edge of the left lens. Inside the left arm there’s a tiny set of initials carved, something like 'MC,' which is a nice identifying detail. The blue silicone tips on the right temple make them easy to spot. I didn’t see a case nearby, but I’ve kept them safe in a basic glasses pouch. If these belong to you or someone you know, I’d be glad to help reunite 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.
