A suspect is in custody after police say he tried to steal the tip jar from a restaurant on Old Spanish Trail.

This happened Saturday afternoon at the Wing Quarter in the 3900 block of OST.

Police said a man went into the restaurant at about 3:30 p.m. and ran out with the tip jar.

But a UPS driver was outside and witnessed the commotion, according to HPD.

That driver grabbed the suspect and got the tip jar back. The suspected thief ran away, but returned about a minute later in a car and shot at the UPS driver.
