Gray Nike running shoes with lime-green accents
Description
I found a pair of gray Nike running shoes this afternoon around 2:15pm in the parking lot behind the Walgreens on 7th Street, near the Patee House Museum in St Joseph. They're men's size 9, with lime-green accents and a small blue flame stitch on the heel. The left shoe has a tiny tear at the toe and the insoles show a scribbled RB mark. They look like they've been worn, but are in decent shape overall. I figured someone might be missing them, and I'd love to help reunite the owner—if these match your shoes, message me with the lace color and the exact heel pattern so we can coordinate a pickup near Market Street.

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.
