Isn’t it likely the tools are also stolen? Did the police even check the trunk?

I’m sure that if the toolbag had identification in/on it, the OP would have returned them.

It's not like they would care, unless there was some very easy way to tell the owner, like a receipt or something.

They ain't gonna store them, or search for the owner... heck, they have tons 100 times more serious cases on hold...

As an owner of tools and a former tradesman I can tell you exactly what was stolen out of my tool kit. I would file a report and the police should be able to match that with recovered property.

They could, but it's the "caring"/"being on any spot on their priority list" part that's missing
