SAN ANTONIO – At least one suspect is under arrest in connection to an ATM theft from early Friday morning.
Forty-eight-year-old Henry Hampton was arrested just hours later.
Around 4:42 a.m., San Antonio police were called to Pioneer Bank on the 900 block of East Basse Road.
Arriving officers found a skyjack tractor left behind at the scene and an ATM missing. Police believe men used the tractor to steal the ATM.
In a press conference, police said a tip about a suspicious vehicle led them to a U-Haul truck in some woods off I-10 and 1604. When they walked up to the truck, Hampton jumped out.
"They did recover the ATM from that UHaul, what we know at this time is that there was no money taken from that ATM. So everything was recovered so it was great job by our detectives, the officers who apprehended the individuals, and recovered the stolen property,” said SAPD’s Sgt. Michelle Ramos.
Police are still investigating, and believe there are other people involved.
