Making a Name for Himself: Tattoo Could be Tip to Texas Suspect's ID

Nov. 15, 2024
Bexar County sheriff's deputies are searching for a man accused of stealing a debit card from a mailbox, and they're hoping a prominent "Mr. Alvarez" arm tattoo leads them to him.

Someone might soon regret his tattoo.

Meet " Mr. Alvarez," a man who is accused of stealing a debit card from someone's mailbox on Wednesday.

The Bexar County Sheriff's Office put out a witty Facebook post to ask for the public's assistance in locating the man who was caught on a surveillance camera.

"We are looking for 'Mr. Alvarez.' BCSO Investigators would like to have a chat with him about a debit card he is using that doesn't match the name on his tattoo," the sheriff's office wrote.

Money was withdrawn at the bank and at the Walmart a 75" TV with other items were purchased.

He drove to a Security Service Federal Credit Union bank in the 5700 block of Northwest Loop 410 — which apparently has high quality security cameras — and withdrew cash from the ATM.

Alvarez, whose arm is heavily tattooed, was sporting a bright orange watch. He was driving a dark-colored Jeep Gladiator.

Maybe he was having a hard time grabbing the cash. Or perhaps he was questioning his life choices, because there was no smile, only a grimace.

Alvarez definitely got the cash. Because next, he drove to a Walmart in the 8900 block of West Military Drive. There, he splurged on a 75-inch TV and other items.

BCSO Investigators are asking that "if you recognize Mr. Alvarez (or perhaps he is fond of the last name and sports the tattoo "just because"), to call them at 210-335-6000 or email [email protected].
