Heavy damage, reports of injuries from strong winds in Southeast Bexar County

Winds toppled an RV, reportedly injuring 2 people

SAN ANTONIO – Strong winds that whipped through the area overnight caused heavy damage at a motel and toppled an RV in Southeast Bexar County.

A security guard at the Braunig Lake RV Resort told KSAT12 that two people who were inside the RV suffered injuries and were taken to a hospital for treatment.

The couple later told KSAT12 that they have recovered from the incident, needing only a couple of stitches. The RV however, had heavy damage.

At a motel next door, debris was left scattered all across the parking lot near Interstate 37 and Donop Road.

The winds tore the metal roof off the Days Inn and Suites.

Parts of it landed in palm trees, ripping down power lines, as well as on top of vehicles in the parking lot.

At least one pickup truck sustained damage.

There were no reports of injuries at the motel, although guests said they endured a frightening and sleepless night.
