“On 8/1 I lost a gold ring that looks like a little shield with small diamonds on it. It would have fallen off my hand around 9 AM walking down 21st Street NW from R to L (Dupont/West End area). Could also be on the 43 bus. Cash reward if found. It is very sentimental and I appreciate anyone who can help me find it. People can call or text me at 973-202-2192.”

Also another reader found Edwin S Kibunja’s wallet. If you are him or know him please get in touch so we can get you your wallet back. Please email [email protected] and I’ll put you in touch with OP.

“Dear PoPville,

We came back from our holiday break to find a drone in our front yard in the 1300 block of Perry Place, NW.

We do not know how long it had been there, since we had been gone since mid-December, but we’d love to get it back to its owner. Can you help?”

If yours email [email protected] and I’ll put you in touch with OP. Also, quick reminder for ya, DC is a DC No Drone Zone as designated by the FAA…

“It was in a parking space against the curb, halfway between N & O on the east side of 9th Street NW, so I suspect it fell out of/off of a car. It’s full of CFA study guides and black binders of class notes as well as a couple of personal items.

Message me if you lost it & tell me what the personal items are; we will get it back to you somehow.”

“On Saturday I found a men’s silver wedding band in the alley between 7th Street and 7th Place, NW. It’s fairly distinctive with gold detailing and raised engraving. I’m sure someone is missing it so just wanted to see if you would share this with the group.”

Please Keep Your Eyes Peeled for a Small Gold Ring with the initials ELE

By Prince Of Petworth

“Dear PoPville,

I lost a ring on my run tonight and I’m desperate. Small, gold, has the initials ELE on it. I was on 14th from Monroe to mt. Pleasant, Mt pleasant to Harvard, Harvard to Adams mill rd, Adams mill to park, park to 16th, down 16th to Euclid, Euclid to 13th, 13th to Monroe and back to 14th and Monroe. Convoluted route I realize. If anyone is wandering around on those streets and can keep an eye out for it I would SERIOUSLY appreciate it. The ring isn’t anything fancy, just major sentimental value. It’s a very old gift from my grandparents who both passed away and I’m just so sad to have lost it. Figured it was worth asking my kind neighbors to keep a look out before I give up. If you happen to find it, please send me an email ([email protected]).”

Anyone (a teacher?) lose these notebooks?

By Prince Of Petworth

notebook

“Dear PoPville,

I was walking my dog down Holmead Place in Columbia Heights when I found two books, and two notebook/planner type books strewn along the sidewalk. I think the owner is a teacher (based on the notes in the notebook and the other books I’ve found with the notebooks), but I can’t find a phone number or name on any of the items. I would love to get this stuff back to its rightful owner. [email protected]”

Anyone Recognize Rocky? Find a Set of Keys?

By Prince Of Petworth

rocky

“Dear PoPville,

I’ve seen this dog in the unit block of Riggs NE in the football field behind the charter school. The dog is often seen in the overnight hours. He’s an escape artist and has been impossible to catch by animal control and police. I’m hoping if the owners can be found, maybe they can get him. From speaking with neighbors, he’s been out here since May and is getting thinner by the month. “rocky” is his name on file with animal control.”

and

“I lost my keys today in the Dupont/Adams Morgan area. The keyring has 5 keys on it total, with a FOB. Also has a pawprint on it with initials “CYB” and I think “’07” too.

Please email [email protected] if you’ve found them.”

Please Keep Your Eyes Peeled for a Stolen Laptop and Bag “with my computer and passport”

By Prince Of Petworth

“Dear PoPville,

I was the unfortunate victim of a car break in that happened in front of my house between 10:30 and 11:30 this morning, in broad daylight. They busted my car window and made off with a laptop bag with my computer and passport. The car was parked on a quiet sleepy street up in Takoma, right next to the Takoma Rec Center. I know it is never smart to leave anything in the car, but I was hoping we might get something back.

If anyone comes across a black bag, Macbook Air or a US and/or UK passport, could they could contact me at [email protected] or turn it to the DC Police 4th District.”

ring

“Dear PoPville,

My wife was riding the metro (red and green line) yesterday and lost her wedding band. It is very slender (the smaller of the two in this picture), and has Hebrew lettering on the inside.

If anyone finds it they will be greatly rewarded. It wasn’t expensive, but it is precious to both of us.”

Ed. Note: Anyone who may have found it please email [email protected] and I’ll put you in touch with OP thanks.
