Robbery leads to car chase, multi-vehicle crash on northeast side

Authorities said the suspects pursued the victim and shot at them before flipping the stolen car they were driving into several other cars.

SAN ANTONIO — Authorities said a robbery in a gas station parking lot led to a car chase that involved gunfire and ended in a scary multi-vehicle crash.

Nobody was hurt in the wreck, which unfolded around 5 p.m., and authorities say none of the suspects have been caught or identified. 

A BCSO deputy at the scene said there was an aggravated robbery on the property of the Circle K on the corner of Binz Engleman and Foster Road. They said there were three male suspects and one female suspect who robbed a man at gunpoint and took his belongings. 

Authorities believe the suspects realized they left something in the victim's car, and they began chasing the victim in a stolen car while shooting at them. During the chase, police say the suspects' vehicle hit an 18-wheeler, went up the side of it, and rolled on top of another car before rolling back onto the road and hitting another vehicle.

Police said the suspects all ran away into a wooded area and nobody was caught, but they do believe they know who the suspects are. 

This is a developing story.
