Police: SUV involved in overnight rollover crash may be stolen

Crash caused major damage at nearby apartment complex

SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS – San Antonio police say a sport utility vehicle that crashed and caused major damage at a North side apartment complex early Friday morning appears to have been stolen.

They still are looking for two of the three people who were in the vehicle when it crashed shortly before 2:30 a.m.

Officers at the scene said the driver was speeding and lost control of the SUV on Patricia Street near Parliament Street, causing it to roll over onto the grass near the Tuscany Park apartments.
