i was asked to kindly remove the original post due to changes in the willingness to help identify the thieves. Hope this helps

Where the police called ?

Did someone do the right thing like let the cops investigate it?

There is also a very simple tool called a Etching Tool.
My Grandpa taught me very young to etc self identifying info on my tools and things.

Police were called, not much they can do from what they said but they were going to "look into it farther"
