Two arrests were made after England's training equipment was stolen from vehicles delivering gear to the team's Swope Soccer Village base in Kansas City before the squad's Saturday arrival.
The Football Association is still determining what was taken, with balls and boots among the items feared missing after the vehicles were broken into.
Kansas City police said they were investigating a possible theft from a team vehicle and remained in contact with the FA on Friday night.
