Took a couple of nice watches and a headset valued at a cool $1,000. Also my logbook which is valueless to him yet irreplaceable to me.

Left the golf clubs and credit cards.

Should I even file and police report?

Did they break the window to get in? If you're making an insurance claim, the ins. co. will probably want a police report.

But no, the police will probably not catch the thief and you won't get your stuff back.

Leads? Sure, I'll just check with the boys down at the station. They've got 4 more detectives working on it. They've got us working in shifts! Leads!!

victory drive pawn shops. Yes report to police so you can recover the stolen items when you find them. Also if you are using the log book to guard against an audit, the police report will come in handy.

Doubtful.

The only thing that may come out of a police report is the lost property being found at a pawn shop or something.

It is more likely that the cops will simply take a statement and never look into it again. There is nothing in it for them.

I had a service truck from my business stolen and the Columbus police caught him trying to sell it to a junk yard. They also had him on video hooking a chain to a pawn shop door and snatching it off.

They will dust for prints. If they find something he may have sweat in like a hat, they will swab for DNA. Long shot on both if the guy had a clue what he was doing. Since he left the cards I say he does. If you have the documentation on the items stole like serial numbers they will alert local pawn shops. But pretty much you are hosed.
