Winnipeg Police Creates a Lost and Found Pinterest Board

The Winnipeg Police Service continues to embrace social media. This time, they’ve created a #FoundInWpg Pinterest Board to help reunite lost items with their owners.


The Winnipeg Police Service regularly receives found property such as car keys, wallets/ID, monies, cell phones, laptop/tablet computers, jewelry, & tools. The WPS policy regarding found property stipulates that the property is to be held for 90 days.

Items currently on the board:

  • RC 4 rotor helipcopter
  • Scooter
  • Gold watch
  • Keys and 2 vehicle fobs
  • Foreign Currency
  • Apple iPhone 5
  • Apple iPhone 4

If any of the items might be yours, you can email wps-found@winnipeg.ca and quote the file number attached to the item. The WPS will then verify that you are indeed the owner. [PINTEREST]
