Gage Goulding has reported on his own assault, now he is reporting on his own equipment theft.
Here is what the KPRC 2 Houston reporter posted on social:
To the person who broke into our car and stole thousands of dollars in camera gear, just know that wasn’t very Texan of you.
All the gear you took (minus two work laptops) isn’t owned by the TV station. It was all our personal stuff. We work really hard to get that gear to help tell the stories of Houston. That hurts.
Just know this… we saw you on camera and police know who you are.
If you know any info that can help lead to an arrest, please call the Houston Police Department. Or if this is you - send me a message and we can handle this privately.
Saltgrass (9110 Southwest Freeway, Houston, TX)
Approx. 1:10 pm
Male suspect driving an apparent Hyundai sedan
The amount you stole is enough to qualify for a felony (aka you go to jail)
HPD Case #: 0252030-26
Since I have actually worked in the Houston media and now covered it for 20 years, let me tell you, in the past, there were professional theft rings that followed TV crews around and broke into unattended news vehicles. Marked units or not, the thieves could clearly identify a news crew in public shooting a story, then follow them to a restaurant at lunch time.
Back then, the cameras were worth $30,000 to $40,000! Talk about a big score.
Sadly, I have covered KPRC 2 reporter crime victims in the past. As I blogged back in 2024, Bryce Newberry got the wrong kind of Houston welcome gift. Then, it happened to Rilwan Balogun in 2025.
This is my message to all KPRC reporters...stay away from Buffalo Bayou!
