SAN ANTONIO – Four people were arrested when an attempted burglary led to a shooting and chase in Schertz early Thursday morning.

The incident started just before 4 a.m. when a homeowner tried to stop a vehicle burglary at their home in the 11000 block of Holly Forest, located in the Willow Grove Subdivision.

Police said the burglary suspects fled to a vehicle, and as they drove off, one of them shot in the air. No one was injured.

Officers located a car that matched the description of the suspect vehicle and attempted to pull it over. Police said the vehicle did not pull over and fled toward Interstate 10, initiating a pursuit.

The vehicle crashed near FM 1518 and I-10, and four people inside the car ran away.

Three people were arrested after a short foot chase. The fourth person was arrested two hours after he was seen leaving a wooded area near the original scene, police said.

One gun was found in their vehicle, which turned out to be recently stolen out of San Antonio, police said.

Schertz police are asking anyone whose vehicles were burglarized on Wednesday night to call 911.
