🚨 MAN ARRESTED AFTER ALLEGED THREATS & PROPERTY DAMAGE 🚨

Is it just me or lately these mugshots been giving strong “I ignored every warning sign possible” energy? 🤦‍♂️😂

After conducting an investigation, deputies say the suspect, Charles James Guevara Jr., allegedly made verbal threats and caused property damage involving people known to him.

🚨 CAR THIEF REALLY SAID “CTRL+C, CTRL+V” ON A VEHICLE KEY 😭🔑🚗

On May 23, 2026, deputies with Constable Mark Herman’s Office responded to the 11200 block of Veterans Memorial Drive after reports of a suspicious person allegedly breaking into vehicles.

When deputies arrived, they made contact with Alejandro Padilla, who apparently thought he was auditioning for “Fast & Furious: Temu Edition.” 😩

Investigators say Padilla had open warrants AND was allegedly caught with a key reader/cloning device while actively trying to clone a vehicle key right there on scene. Deputies say the device was being used in an attempt to steal a vehicle.

Padilla was arrested and booked into the Harris County Jail on charges including:
• Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle
• Unlawful Use of a Criminal Instrument
• Open warrants

Authorities say his total bond was set at $30,100 through the 230th District Court and County Court 16.

Moral of this story: if your “career path” requires a key cloning machine in a parking lot… it might be time to update the résumé. 💀
