She said she and her two 7-year-old granddaughters were undressed inside the outdoor bathroom when one of the children noticed someone taking photos through a hole in the wall.<\/p>\n<p>The woman told police she saw hands holding a camera through the opening before the person quickly moved away. A 17-year-old who attended the gathering also told officers she had seen someone\u2019s eyes looking through the same hole while she was changing.<\/p>\n<p>Officers later found an opening where a brick had been removed from the bathroom wall. The other side of the wall was inside a garage, where police found plywood propped against the opening and paint cans nearby.<\/p>\n<p>Gonzales denied the allegations but told a Texas Ranger he was the only person at the home during the pool rental and that no one else had access to the garage. He also consented to a search of his phone, where officers reported finding more than 300 deleted photos, including images and videos of young females.<\/p>\n<p>The affidavit alleges Gonzales may have committed voyeurism and invasive visual recording.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"WINDCREST, Texas \u2014 A 62-year-old man has been arrested after he allegedly used a hole in an outdoor&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":427416,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[82,84,83],"class_list":["post-427415","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-antonio","tag-san-antonio","tag-san-antonio-headlines","tag-san-antonio-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/427415","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=427415"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/427415\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/427416"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=427415"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=427415"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=427415"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
