A San Marcos man was arrested on multiple charges Friday after several carjacking incidents, including an attempt to steal a vehicle with two young children inside.
The San Marcos Police Department responded to the Econo Lodge hotel — 811 S. Guadalupe St. — in reference to a carjacking on Friday at 6:15 p.m. SMPD said the suspect, who was later identified as Christian Lee Guzman, 29, forced a woman out of her vehicle causing minor injuries in the process of stealing the vehicle.
Police said as they were investigating the Econo Lodge incident, a call was received that the same offender attempted another carjacking at San Marcos High School — 2601 Rattler Road. SMPD stated that the woman inside the vehicle tried to run away but Guzman chased her down but took off when he was confronted by other people.
