Two people are accused of crawling under company vans at a North Side window-tinting shop and cutting wires and fuel lines, a move the business says created a serious safety hazard and rattled employees. The owner quickly turned to neighbors for help, posting photos and suspect descriptions online while police opened an investigation.
According to KSAT, the incident unfolded just before 4 a.m. on Monday, April 27, in the 3600 block of E. Evans Road at Premier Window Tinting. San Antonio police officers reportedly did not make it to the scene until roughly seven hours later, and the initial report notes that two company vans had wires cut underneath them.
Owner Posts Suspect Photos On Nextdoor
In the aftermath, Premier Window Tinting issued an alert on the neighborhood app, telling residents, “Two men cut wires underneath our company vans,” and attaching photos and brief suspect descriptions. The post says the men parked across the street near Sprouts on Bulverde Road before walking into the lot. The business asked neighbors to check home-security cameras and either message the shop directly or contact authorities if they spotted anything useful, according to Nextdoor.
Former Employee Appears In Incident Report
Per the incident report cited by KSAT, the woman who called police identified one of the men as a former employee. That ex-worker had left the company without notice and was described as upset about delays in receiving his final paycheck. As of this reporting, police have not publicly announced any arrests or filed charges tied to the case.
Where It Happened
Premier Window Tinting lists its shop at 3623 E. Evans Rd., Suite 113, in the same 3600 block referenced in neighborhood posts and police documents. The North Side address sits off the Bulverde Road shopping corridor and matches the location described in the business alert.
