Lost wedding ring returned to owner in Detroit

(CBS) – A Detroit woman got her wedding ring back on Tuesday evening.

Shahlaa Idan lost her ring at Michigan Central Station last month and expected never to see it again.

“My husband told me he would buy me a new one,” Idan told CBS Detroit. “I was still so sad because it wasn’t the same.”

So Idan decided to go online again and search for “found rings” and came across a post by Yelitsa Jean-Charles.

“It was my ring,” said Idan.

After several days of checking and deciding on the meeting point, Idan and Jean-Charles met at the same place where the ring had been lost.

“We really need people like you in the world,” Idan said to Jean-Charles after she got the ring back. “Thank you, thank you, thank you.”

Jean-Charles told CBS News Detroit she had almost given up hope that the rightful owner would ever find her.

“We thought maybe they weren’t online or maybe they were just visiting,” Jean-Charles said. “We said we would wait another day. The next morning we got Shalaa’s message.”

Both women were overjoyed outside Michigan Central on Tuesday night and said that’s the beauty of the Internet.

“Thank you to everyone who helped us find it,” Idan said.

“I want to see more stories like this because things are really difficult right now,” Jean-Charles said. “If we can do good, I want to see more of it.”
