  • Repo man rear-ends SUV, tries to repossess it

    SAN ANTONIO - Police say a man is facing charges after he allegedly crashed into the back of an SUV in an apparent attempt to repossess the vehicle with the driver still inside.

    The incident happened at Loop 410 and Pearsall Road at about 9:30p.m. on Tuesday. Police say the SUV was spotted by the repo man near a car wash in the area.

    He followed the driver to a nearby intersection where he apparently rear-ended her SUV with his car, according to police. Another man, a tow truck driver, then immediately positioned his tow truck in front of the SUV and blocked the woman in the SUV from being able to drive away.

    Police say the tow truck driver then tried to hook the vehicle up to the wrecker while the driver sat inside.

    The driver was taken to a nearby hospital with back injuries.

    The suspect driving the car told officers he had repossession orders, but he decided against towing the SUV after police arrived on the scene.

    Police did not arrest the repo man, but say he does face charges of assault causing bodily injury.
