SAN ANTONIO — San Antonio Police said a 16-year-old robbed three people, then led police on a chase before he was found by the SAPD helicopter.
Around 6:30 a.m., SAPD responded to an initial call for a shooting, but as police investigated they discovered that it was a robbery. The suspect then went on to commit two more robberies, SAPD said.
As the juvenile was fleeing the scene, he side-swiped someone then lost control of the vehicle and crashed. He was apprehended by police in the 200 block of Carolina and Staffle.
There were no injuries reported and police are continuing their investigation.
