Austin homeowner dealing with damage after 'mansion rager' | KVUE

Hundreds of teenagers broke into an Austin home and held a so-called "mansion rager." The homeowner has no idea who threw the party.

It sounds like someone knew the family wasn't going to be home. It's criminal behavior. If these kids can drive, they can be prosecuted as adults.

Demand legislators change the laws so that perpetrators...ANY perpetrators, must pay for COMPLETE restitution. And if they are under age...the parents must pony up.

My guess? Over-indulged teens from well-heeled Austin families.

Any group no matter who they may be that trespass on my property uninvited I will assume they mean my family harm and will respond with deadly force.

These kids are gonna f around and find out eventually

I was a dog walker in Austin. Only one person I did a walk for had a security alarm. And I had hundreds of different clients. So I am not surprised. Most had wi-fi cameras.

It's just a matter of time before one of these kids gets their brains 🧠 blowed out! And their parents will ve screaming 😱 this is an injustice! If you wanna do the crime! Then, be willing to suffer the consequences if you get caught by the homeowner or police 🚔. 💯

‘ mansion rager ‘
I learned a new term today

I don't live in a mansion and I have security cameras that allow me to see what's happening at my house no matter where I am in the world. Something's not right with this story.

Why ddn't the neighbors call the police ASAP?

I was gonna say something about Texas homes and guns but then I realized it was in AUSTIN. So nah these kids completely safe.😂🤣🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Apparently they knew the homeowner and what his schedule was. Sounds like he was gone for the evening local if the homeowner drove up while they were there after getting phone calls.

It sucks to live in Austin but this just makes it worse.

Hoping he didn’t have firearms that could have been stolen. What no one needs is a bunch of teenagers armed knowing they were willing to do this to someone’s home.

[garyschoonmaker]

These people have balls... Everyone has guns....

[marilyn]

Sorry for the family and what is the reason for this break in and destruction. Kicks.

[vickiherring]

They need to arrest all the kids when they find them and put them in jail. Do not be easy on the..

Hello & welcome to the world of TikTok. Juvie ain't no joke these days. start sendin' em there.

[lindaguthrie]

Get them all for breaking and entering and property damage all of them. Parents if you know that your child had part in this come forward it’s called tough love teach them that if they do a crime they will do the time

Apparently, taking away outdoor social outlets from the youth results in resentment against people with multiple homes.. who knew?
