غير أن أفراد الفريقين، بدورهم، لم يجدوا تفسيرًا لما حدث، فاكتفوا بتحريز المبلغ وتحرير محضر بالواقعة

Google gives "seizing", but I'm not sure if that is the best translation. Perhaps something like "safeguarding" would be better?
Thank you!

Confiscate (recover)
Actually, the two english words corresponds to two different meanings of the Arabic.
In the context you provide, the police confiscated the money, which according to the first web reference, means: "to seize by or as if by authority" which is the Arabic meaning here.
The other word Recover, would be used when the police takes evidence from the crime scene (please see second web reference) this is also applicable to the Arabic, in which case the recovered material becomes حرز with plural أحراز meaning exhibits in the case.

Thanks Osama, Interestingly, you suggest "seize" and confiscate is an offical form of seize (see my web reference, PLEASE)

guard/safeguard
Arabic-Italian dictionary "Traini" refers to "guarf" or "safeguard" with reference to this word. Given the context "confiscate" does not match.
