One couple has been trying to get police to take action against an neighbor who they claim has been harassing them since they moved in back in 2022.<\/p>\n
SAN ANTONIO \u2014 After hundreds of police reports and calls, residents in one west-side neighborhood are breathing a small sigh of relief.<\/p>\n
A nuisance neighbor was arrested Tuesday after claims he had been causing problems for years. His actions were allegedly caught on camera and cited in the arrest warrants.<\/p>\n
KENS 5 first spoke with Helen Tiseth in June after she said her neighbor pointed a gun at her home.<\/p>\n
\u201cIs it going to take for him to shoot me?\u201d Tiseth said. \u201cWhat is it going to take?\u201d<\/p>\n
When we first sat down with her, Tiseth had a large stack of yellow slips from SAPD documenting the reports she had filed against her neighbor. By Tuesday, that pile had only grown.<\/p>\n
This time, she shared video she said showed her neighbor firing a shot toward her home Sunday night.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t even know where to turn anymore. I mean, he actually shot my house now,\u201d Tiseth said.<\/p>\n
She said police responded that night and tried to get the man out of his home, but he refused to answer.<\/p>\n
On Monday, Tiseth contacted KENS 5 again, frustrated by the lack of action.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey\u2019re condoning it. They\u2019re condoning everything he\u2019s done,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Tiseth said the disturbing behavior began shortly after she and her wife moved in back in 2022.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe would shoot off in the front yard when the neighbors had a BBQ across the street. He\u2019d shoot off in the backyard,\u201d she recalled. \u201cSo the neighbors are calling, I\u2019m calling. The police show up, and [say], well, you don\u2019t have videos. Your word against his.\u201d<\/p>\n
Last October, Tiseth captured video of him on a ladder looking into her yard. When she called police, she said they told her he wasn\u2019t doing anything illegal but advised her to install cameras.<\/p>\n
She followed their advice, but soon after, she started receiving knocks on her door in the middle of the night from SAPD. She said her neighbor was making false reports about her.<\/p>\n
KENS 5 obtained several police reports. Many were theft calls in which the man claimed someone was stealing his chickens.<\/p>\n
Tiseth said she became increasingly concerned when her cameras captured him walking around with a bat or gun.<\/p>\n
On the morning of June 23, she called police again after her neighbor had reported her the night before. Video shows him throwing a dead possum toward Tiseth and responding officers.<\/p>\n
\u201cObviously, something is not right with him,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Later that night, she said he pointed a gun toward her home. Still, no arrest was made.<\/p>\n
\u201cEvery time they come, they say, \u2018Oh, it\u2019s just Larry,\u2019 and give me a card, but they don\u2019t ever do anything,\u201d Tiseth said.<\/p>\n
KENS 5 reached out to SAPD Monday with her concerns. Soon after, a detective contacted her to follow up on Sunday\u2019s incident.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday morning, Lorenzo Delgadillo was arrested. He is facing a deadly conduct charge for the June 23 incident and a charge of discharging a firearm in certain municipalities for what happened Sunday.<\/p>\n
Both warrants state several neighbors, as well as his daughter and brother, had expressed concern about his actions.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t hate him. I just hope he finds some peace in his life,\u201d Tiseth said.<\/p>\n
Delgadillo was given a $20,000 bond for both charges. As of Tuesday night, he remains in the Bexar County Jail. If he bonds out, he will be prohibited from owning a gun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One couple has been trying to get police to take action against an neighbor who they claim has…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":160144,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5133],"tags":[5229,7202,7203,358,3187,67,586,132,5230,68,2969],"class_list":{"0":"post-160143","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-antonio","8":"tag-america","9":"tag-san-antonio","10":"tag-sanantonio","11":"tag-texas","12":"tag-tx","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-united-states-of-america","15":"tag-unitedstates","16":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","17":"tag-us","18":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115059126672938840","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/160143","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=160143"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/160143\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/160144"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=160143"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=160143"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=160143"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
