According to KSAT News, the San Antonio Police Department put out a search for a man who is responsible for driving directly into the side of his neighbor’s home.
Driver Drove Into the Home Several Times After an Argument
The incident occurred at Burd and Fenfield Avenues on the Southwest Side of San Antonio on the morning of November 14. Apparently, the driver purposefully drove into his neighbor’s home numerous times after a heated argument. The affected family was present inside the home during the attack.
After hitting the home, the driver escaped the location and evaded authorities. Police immediately began a search for the attacker in connection with various criminal charges for endangering his neighbors and destroying property.
The San Antonio Fire Department and Red Cross are working together to locate a temporary home for the family. Power sources such as electricity were shut off in the home since it is facing severe damages and repair.
