File a police report first. Then call the cops from the pawn shop.

Years ago, someone stole Ev Gilmore's Miraphone (I think). A student found it in a pawn shop for sale at $750. Ev went there and called the cops. The police came and looked at the records, the pawn shop paid $27 for the tuba. They knew it was hot and they tried to sell it fast. With the police there, they just handed it over to Ev rather than deal with the law.

Texas laws are very harsh on pawn shops receiving stolen goods. I hope he gets both tubas back quickly.
