With the goods stolen, it seemed incredibly unlikely the valuables, which also included an iPad would ever be returned. However, in less than 24 hours, Stieber's belt and Gold medal had been returned!
A Christmas miracle! My bag was found with only a few things missing. Belt and medal were still there pic.twitter.com/fyZQhg9fpO

Though it appears the thief is still at large, at least the irreplaceable medal, earned by Stieber's work ethic and skill were returned.
