The incident happened in the late morning hours on Sunday at a home in the 200 block of Spring Tree Trail, in the Spring Tree Subdivision.

Police said the man was a solicitor or posed as a solicitor “in an effort to blend into the neighborhood or conceal his criminal intent.”

He then stole a weed trimmer from the bed of a pickup truck.

Images show him wearing dark pants, a maroon T-shirt and brown sandals. He was driving a two-tone older-model Subaru Outback at the time, police said in the post.

Anyone who came into contact with the man is asked to contact CPD at 210-659-1999 or the Guadalupe County Crime Stoppers at 877-403-TIPS (8477).

“If you live in the area and were contacted by a male matching this description posing as a solicitor we are hoping that you can provide us with additional information or security camera video to help solve this crime,” the post reads.
