Lost leashes in Williamsport
Description
I lost my leashes. On Saturday at 3:40 PM I realized my leashes were missing from the rack outside the Genetti Hotel on West Fourth Street in Williamsport. They were two leashes: the black nylon one for my terrier and a blue retractable for quick walks. I had just finished a stroll along the Susquehanna Riverwalk and stopped for a snack at a cafe on Market Street, which is when I noticed they were gone. I feel anxious because the dogs depend on me and the leashes are worn from daily use. If you saw them around the Genetti Hotel or along West Fourth Street, please keep an eye out.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
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.
