Dad's Widow Moved Out Without Telling Me And Took His Furniture, Electronics, Items, Etc. Recovery Of Stolen Items?

Location: New York City

I live in a house with my father's widow, he passed last year. The will says that I am to receive "all of the residue and remainder of my gross estate, real and personal". I am the only beneficiary receiving 100% as stated in the will, and also the sole executor of the will. Well, apparently she didn't like that, so she decided to leave while I was at work and take everything from upstairs; the living room furniture, the TVs, his clothing, bedspreads, computers, even his personal documents. I live in NYC and would like to know the next steps. Looking online it seems I need to make a police report, but whether I need to call 911 or a lawyer or something I'm unsure of. Is there anyway I can recover the stolen items? I don't really have receipts for them since he bought a lot of these things over a decade ago. Thank you.

Edit: I also don't know where she went, assuming the police would be able to find that out.

Edit: She wasn’t married to my dad, and they had no prenuptial or prearranged agreement / contract. They simply lived together. She and I received money from his TOD accounts, split 50/50. Outside of the house, we are equal in inheritance.
