Overview
- The latest incident occurred Sunday, Sept. 28 at Vintage Church in Liberty Hill shortly after services, with security cameras recording a man walking through the building as the ministry director was leaving.
- Entry was forced with a crowbar, interior doors were damaged including the pastor’s office door, and the church estimates about $3,000 in damage as the intruder appeared to search for offerings and left without taking valuables.
- Williamson County officials say the method and images match earlier burglaries reported in Jonestown and Lago Vista, with sightings of a similar red SUV; a KXAN report cites a dark red Chevy Trax with no roof rack.
- New leads include a close-up image of a distinctive arm tattoo, a footprint left on a kicked-in door, and the suspect’s backpack captured on surveillance.
- Law enforcement agencies in Williamson and Travis counties are coordinating, urging congregations to review security, and asking anyone with information to contact WCSO, TCSO, or Jonestown PD.
