SAN ANTONIO -- A San Antonio firefighter, who is no stranger to police, is back in jail.

A felony warrant was issued for San Antonio firefighter Brian Jones. Converse police say he not only violated a protective order his ex-girlfriend filed against him, he broke into her home for a PlayStation video game console.

Bexar County Sheriff's deputies arrested the 30-year-old firefighter Tuesday morning at the home of his ex-wife, Chrissy Jones.

"The female at the residence claims he wasn't at home," said Louis Antu. "They searched and found him in the attic."

Strangely, Chrissy Jones, who was arrested for helping hide her ex-husband, is the same woman who filed a protective order against him last year. During that incident, Brian Jones allegedly pulled a gun on Chrissy and threatened to kill her. Records show at one time Brian Jones was placed on house arrest with a GPS monitor.

San Antonio Fire Department officials say Brian Jones was placed on paid administrative duty after his arrest last year. They say they're looking into the recent arrest to decide they're next step.

So fireman Jones pulls a gun on his ex, threatens to do her in and he gets a probation sentence and a note to stay away from her. Now he breaks into a home, to steal a toy and then goes and hides from the police. Why? This guy should know that the last time he was going to do a person and only got probation, what is the "good judge" going to do to him now, whack his hand? Hey the last time he got paid while he stayed home probably cleaning his gun or playing with the toy, the other toy the playstation.

This story is confusing- not sure if it's the complexity of this story or the outstanding reporting skills of WOAI at work again. I DO know this- at the end of the last sentence, it should read "...their next step." Technically it currently reads "...they are next step." Proofreading, folks- they teach it to you in stinkin middle school!!!!

Glad "Chrissy" was arrested, also. This will teach her not to play games with authorities, as it seems she can't decide if she wants him or not. He should be kicked out of the SAFD as he is degrading the department and has no self-respect or respect for our real firefighters that care for the safety of citizens in the community.

Lemme' get this straight. Last year, Mr. "Fireman" Jones pulled a gun on Mrs. "Crissy" Jones and threatened to kill her, so Mrs. Jones filed a restraining order against him. Then, this year, Mr. Jones breaks into Mrs. Jones' house to steal a game console. Presumably someone reported that to the police and when they arrived at Mrs. ex-Jones' house, she tells police he's not at home. The police decide to look around anyway and find Mr. Jones hiding in the attic. The police arrest Mr. Jones for breaking into Mrs. ex-Jones' house and stealing the game console. They then arrest Mrs. ex-Jones for hiding Mr. Jones in her attic. Did I get that right? Strange story and even stranger people. Does anyone else think it is unlikely that Mr. "Fireman" Jones could drag a fire hose from the truck to the hydrant in his current condition?
