San Antonio police are looking for a gunman who robbed a woman at gunpoint outside a neighborhood Easy Stop on the near West Side, and there is now $5,000 on the line for the tip that helps catch him. The June 4 holdup, caught on surveillance, has neighbors rattled while detectives work to put a name to the suspect. Investigators say the victim did what she was told, and the man took off in a vehicle.
The robbery happened around 7:45 p.m. on June 4 at the Easy Stop in the 423 block of NW 24th Street near West Martin Street, according to investigators. Police told reporters that an unknown man walked up to a 32-year-old woman, threatened to shoot her and demanded cash. When she said she did not have any money, he snatched her phone and jewelry, then drove off. Detectives have released still images in hopes someone recognizes him, as reported by KABB/FOX San Antonio.
Crime Stoppers Puts Up Cash

The group notes in its public materials that callers can stay anonymous and may still be eligible for payment if their information helps secure an arrest or indictment.

AI-Enhanced Surveillance Images
Local coverage shows that one of the released images was later described as being “enhanced by AI” to sharpen what cameras captured, and that composite is now shown alongside other stills detectives hope someone will recognize. The photos show a man in dark clothing with a backpack at the scene, and investigators say even small identifying details could prove crucial. KABB/FOX San Antonio published the AI-enhanced image as part of its reporting.
Why Those Tips Matter
Rewards like this are a familiar tool in San Antonio robbery cases, and Crime Stoppers frequently offers up to $5,000 to help crack violent crimes.
