Is it entrapment if the person setting the bait isn't a policeman?

Like, let's say I leave a backpack on a bench in a public place with some valuable stuff in it.

Some person steals it.

However, unbeknownst to him/her, there is actually a GPS inside the backpack, tracking him/her!

I call the police and they arrest that person.

Is that entrapment?

BTW, in case you haven't guessed, I really hate thieves and have sometimes thought of making a hobby out of busting them. :-)
