Black Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 in gray case
I lost my black Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 in a gray silicone case yesterday around 3pm while I was grabbing coffee near the Cedar Falls Public Library on College Street. It has a blue panda sticker on the back and a small crack along the top-left corner. The 8-inch tablet is roughly the size of a pocket notebook, and the screen still responds, but the case is a bit scuffed from a fall on the sidewalk. This tablet holds a lot of my class notes and a few family photos, so it feels sentimental, and I’d really appreciate getting it back if anyone finds it around downtown Cedar Falls.

Missing person: Mei Chen, 12, blue windbreaker

She also wears a silver heart-shaped necklace that she never takes off. I'm really worried—it's a busy area and crowds can be overwhelming, and she tends to wander off when unsure of directions. If anyone spots her, please text me right away; she has sentimental value to our family and we just want her home.
