how do I contact the original owner of an iPad with activation lock?

I have an Apple device from a lost and found bin with an activation lock. The username/email address is obfuscated. Is there some way I can reach out to them letting them know I've found their device?

Apple doesn't track who owns what device/computer, so there isn't a way to find out who was the previous owner. Turn it into the local police.
