Lost navy backpack with iPad and meds
Description
Lost (suspect stolen) samsonite navy blue backpack, with iPad and other values inside, including expensive prescription medication. Items in main pocket include iPad, black choir folder, iPhone charger, red sports bag with towel and swimwear inside, spiral pad, blue notebook. Items in smaller front pocket include razor, toothpaste & toothbrush, medication, tissues.
Last seen in Supermacs Temple Bar, 27 East Essex Street, Dublin 2, Co. Dublin DO2 YK37, at 1:15am on Wednesday 22nd October 2025. I entered the takeaway 10 minutes earlier, left the bag on the floor under a table/ledge, beside the base of a stool. I left it unattended for around 1-2 minutes when I went up to the counter, and I noticed 2-5 minutes after I returned that it was missing. I suspect it was stolen from this location during this time.

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
- Garda 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 asking your local Garda station for advice first.
Keep communication on Lost.ie
- 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, PPS numbers, or copies of your ID.
