A San Antonio mother says a tiny mouse, with a king-sized appetite started terrorizing her kitchen by eating everything in sight.After getting nowhere with her new property manager, she reached out to FOX SA's Investigative Problem Solver Darian Trotter.

When Kayla Walker moved her family from Virginia to Balcones Heights, she was excited to settle into her new apartment at The Gobi. Until she wasn't.She became uncomfortable almost immediately after signing her lease. During her walk through, she says she noticed what she describes as deplorable conditions on day one. "It was roach eggs and poop and trash and stuff behind the stove and in the cabinets between my stove and just like in crevices of the closets and stuff like roach eggs and doo, doo and stuff like that inside the cracks," explained Walker. Kayla says she was able to get property managers to make the apartment more move-in ready, but her problems were far from over.Her security camera caught her rampant rodent in the act."The pizza got snatched behind the stove," Walker said."I kept seeing the head poking up, and I was just looking and then at the last 13 seconds, that's when it just snatched it, snatches it behind the stove real fast," Walker said. "The way it snatch the pieces behind, it's like, it's like a human hand, you know, it was fast, very fast." She's not sure if the rodent acted alone, but she says the video does explain the scratching noises inside her stove."I had Chinese food in the oven, in the takeout thing, and it bit a hole in the side of it, and was taking food out the side of the container," Walker said. "But like I said, sometimes I would think it was the ice maker until I seen the bite mark in my food."We noticed the window in her dining area wasn't secure. The medal was mangled and there were jagged pieces of glass."I don't put I didn't put nothing up," Walker said. "I don't have no tv in here. I didn't put no furniture in here and nothing because I don't I'm not comfortable. I'm not comfortable at all."

"I shouldn't have to jump over all these hurdles and have to do all these extra things that should have been taken care of before, before I moved into the apartment," said Walker. The property manager did respond to our request, saying “The rodent issue was addressed immediately" and “There was a follow up inspection and additional treatment.”Officers issued three notices of violations; including one for a light gap on the front door near the locks and knob. The same for the window in the dining room, and another for what code enforcement describes as the live roach and rodent infestation.BULVERDE, Texas - Hill College Prep High School has been put on lockdown.Principal Julie Wiley said in the alert that local law enforcement is on campus.
