England reunited with World Cup kit after 'heist'
England goalkeeper Dean Henderson said he had his boots back after training equipment was stolen ahead of the squad's arrival at their World Cup training base on Saturday.
Kansas City mayor Quinton Lucas earlier put out a statement on the "heist".
He said officials at "local, state and federal levels" were investigating the theft from vehicles transferring equipment from England's training camp in Florida.
But is understood most of the items have now been recovered.
Henderson was asked after England's first training session at Swope Soccer Village whether he had lost his boots.
"I think I did, but I got them back, so it's all good," said the Crystal Palace goalkeeper.
"I think they got everything back, so it's all good."
Defender Dan Burn was relaxed about the episode.
"Obviously it was to do with the police," he said. "So I don't know how much people know about it. We didn't know a lot about it, but I've got all my kit and all my boots."
Thomas Tuchel's England, among the favourites to win the World Cup, had a gentle training session in front of scores of watching fans on Saturday.
They open their World Cup campaign against Croatia on Wednesday, before further games in Group L against Ghana and Panama.
