SAN ANTONIO -- A man says he was choked with a jump rope by two men during a home invasion on the northwest side Monday morning.
The victim called News 4 WOAI while he was inside the emergency room, waiting to undergo more tests. He said he spotted two men trying to break into his home in the 500 block of Cloudcroft Dr. at about 10:30 a.m. The victim was returning home from an errand. He called 911 and the two men ran off, so he went inside the home. However, the victim said two men attacked him from behind and choked him with a jump rope. He lost consciousness and when he came to, police were inside his home. The two men had left the home without taking anything before police arrived.
News 4 WOAI found out the home has been burglarized four times before and neighbors said it seems like the Inspiration Hills area is being targeted by burglars and thieves. The neighborhood is off Bandera Road inside Loop 410.
News 4 WOAI tracked crime in the neighborhood and discovered eight burglaries have been reported to the San Antonio Police Department in the last three months.
One of the suspects is described as a Hispanic man in his early to mid-20's. The other is described as a black man in his early to mid-20's.
