Yes but it reasonable for him to want his stuff back and she needs to act like an adult and make sure he gets them. If she won't you may need to write it off.

I also agree with op I think she is drinking.
Well, of course. His stuff is kind of the least of the worries here.

I've had almost this exact thing happen more than once. I didn't always get my stuff back. Sometimes it's better to let go of stuff (of course depending on what it is.) Sometimes the police can get involved and escort you to the house to collect your things. I guess it depends. Is it clothes and a toothbrush or a car and stereo and wallet? There's a lot of gray area here. I've walked away from thousands of dollars worth of stuff in the pursuit of freedom and protecting myself.

I personally don't want to see or talk to someone when I break up with them, but I would put their stuff out on the step if they wanted to come by and pick it up, or I would give it to someone else to do the hand-off.
