A multi-agency law enforcement operation in San Antonio, Texas, is underway to locate an 18-year-old male suspect who remains at large following a high-speed vehicle pursuit and crash on Wednesday morning, August 26, 2026. The suspect is wanted on multiple state and federal felony warrants related to drug and firearm offenses. The incident began at approximately 8:30 a.m. near Potranco Road and Loop 1604, where Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) troopers, assisted by the DPS Criminal Investigations Division and the FBI, attempted a traffic stop. The driver failed to comply and initiated a pursuit that continued onto eastbound U.S. Highway 90. During the chase, the suspect vehicle struck another car, lost control, and crashed into a perimeter fence at Lackland Air Force Base. Following the collision, the suspect fled on foot and briefly entered a bystander’s vehicle before fleeing again near U.S. Highway 90 and Interstate 410. No injuries were reported among the occupants of the vehicles involved. The police activity prompted a precautionary security response at nearby schools, including Mary Burns Michael Elementary, Fisher Elementary, and IDEA Ambrose & Freda Robinson, which were temporarily placed in secure status before being cleared. Multiple law enforcement agencies continue to actively search the area for the suspect, who has not yet been located. Authorities are urging the public to remain vigilant and report any sightings to the appropriate agencies. The investigation remains active with no further details available at this time.
