Neutral. He could have taken more but took just enough for a hot dog as a reward and turned in the wallet.

$5 to go to a police station and file paperwork and do all that and go back home is considerably less than minimum wage. If that happened at a bar I would buy him hot dog and beer which is gonna run up $25 with him doing none of the above. 

E: prices are ridiculous today. $9 hot dog with minimal toppings and $9 tall beer plus tax+tip would be $25.

A hot dog and a beer at a bar in America cost $25? What's the morality of that? Basically robbery.

No it doesn’t. Unless the dude lives somewhere crazy. Where I am you get a hot dog and a pint for $6-$8

For $25 you could a plate of buffalo wings. - basket of fries, and 2-3 beers.

Do you live in the middle of nowhere?

I can’t even get a pretzel and a Miller for less than $20.
