We know how frustrating and violating it feels to have your car stolen, 
but we also know tracking down your stolen ride comes with risks. A man in 
Austin, Texas is learning that the hard way after he stabbed and killed 
someone driving his stolen Kia, believing the other man was a thief. Now 
the Kia owner is facing a first-degree murder charge.

Texas woman invents a kidnapping to help with finding a stolen car.

The details of the case seem to be in dispute and from the sound of things 
it will be tied up in the legal system for some time. Basically what 
happened was 34-year-old Alex Trevino Garcia and an unidentified woman 
tracked down his allegedly stolen Kia to an apartment complex, reports 
KXAN.

That’s when the woman called 911. Garcia got out of the car he was 
driving, walked over to the Kia, and reportedly tried taking the key fob 
out of it so the people couldn’t drive off in it. That’s when an 
altercation between him and the people in the Kia started.

Ultimately, Garcia allegedly stabbed the driver in the ribs. Police 
arrived on the scene and tried providing first aid, but by the time medics 
got to him the man was declared dead.

Some people claim that Garcia handed a gun or knife to the woman who 
waited in the other car before approaching the Kia. At least one person in 
the Kia claims he approached holding a knife. Garcia says someone in the 
stolen car tried stabbing him, but he got the knife and stabbed the other 
driver as he was attacked.

We don’t know what really happened and investigators are going to have a 
hard time unraveling this story, from the sound of things. What we do know 
is tracking down a stolen car, whether yours or a friend’s/family members 
isn’t without risks.

After all, many car thieves carry weapons for protection and even to 
commit other crimes. This is why we don’t recommend confronting thieves 
but instead think it’s best to take your stolen ride back when it’s parked 
and unoccupied.

Even if you yourself are carrying a weapon, you’re still walking into a 
dangerous situation confronting car thieves. And you could face intense 
legal scrutiny if you end up hurting or killing someone in your stolen 
ride.
