My iPhone was stolen!! Help?!?

Earlier today my iPhone was stolen out of my purse, find my iPhone was on but I had no password on it beings that I have TouchID. When I got home, I went to my iCloud to see where it was and it told me that it was restored and is now offline. Since my iCloud email is still linked to my iPhone, can I still track it once it connects to internet even though it was factory reset? Thanks! I still haven t told my mom my phone is gone.

    Because you iCloud account was on it with Find My iPhone enabled, the thief cannot remove it without your iCloud password, even after a restore. Yes you can track it once it is connected to an internet source but as it is stolen, you're better off reporting it than trying to track it yourself. There have been numerous cases of people being beaten up after trying to trace their stolen phone after confronting the thief
