Theft is
(1)A person is guilty of theft if he dishonestly appropriates property belonging to another with the intention of permanently depriving the other of it; and “thief” and “steal” shall be construed accordingly.
So there has to be dishonest appropriation with the intention to permanently deprive. Picking the wrong bag up isn’t that - you haven’t got dishonest appropriation, let alone that with intent to deprive.
