Tyler Boebert's alleged victim says the congresswoman's son, 18, 'ransacked her car and terrified her daughters'

An alleged victim of congresswoman Lauren Boebert's son who was arrested on a string of theft charges has claimed he broke into her car and terrified her children.

Tyler Boebert, 18, was arrested on Tuesday and is facing nearly two dozen different charges in connection to a spate of vehicle break-ins and property theft in the republican's Colorado district.

An arrest affidavit revealed he allegedly broke into a Kia Sorrento and stole belongings from inside the car, including a wallet. No other details were given. 

Roscely Alvarado, who has come forward claiming to be the owner of the car that was ransacked, told local news station KJCT the theft terrified her daughters. 

She said: 'I sent my older daughter to get my purse from the car and she was like, "Mom the car is a mess, everything is everywhere, I don’t know what happened."'

'She had my purse in her hand but without the wallet, she told me that there was nothing inside of the purse, she was telling me she was scared, she felt like someone from here could have stolen from us and that was making her scared.' 

The mother said she learned a lesson from the ordeal - and will be keeping her door locked and be more cautious in the future. 

'I should be more cautious, don’t ever leave my purse in the car again, and yeah be more cautious. Be more cautious because I have 2 kids, an 11-year-old girl, and a 3-year-old girl, the 3-year-old has a condition,' she said.

Tyler is facing charges including four counts of criminal possession of a financial device, three counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and three counts of theft of under $300.

The other charges range from four felony counts of criminal possession of an ID, a felony count of conspiracy to commit a felony and more than 15 different misdemeanor and petty charges. One of the alleged victims was said to be as young as three years old.

Police narrowed in on Tyler, a father of one, after a teen helped identify him on a store's security footage, according to an affidavit seen by DailyMail.com.

The teen then told police that Tyler and a female accomplice had made a sex tape and that Tyler had sent it to another person in their age group. Tyler has not been charged with any crimes in connection to the alleged sex tape.

Tyler is accused of breaking in and stealing from four vehicles, taking cash, gift cards, a social security card and credit cards, as well as driver's licenses.

It's not clear which co-defendant Tyler allegedly made a sex tape with. His three co-defendants have only been described as a 16-year-old male, a 16-year-old female, and a 17-year-old female. 

The teens allegedly used the cash to buy gas and food from a McDonald's and a Kum and Go in Rifle, though banks eventually started declining the charges. 

They also apparently tried to order $717 worth of merchandise from Shein.com, $175 at Kum and Go and $10.95 from a Starbucks.

An arrest affidavit claims Boebert was recognized on surveillance video at a gas station on February 20 by a police officer in Rifle investigating a series of vehicle break-ins and thefts. 

The video shows Boebert in a Shooters Bar and Grill hoodie - the restaurant formerly owned by his mother - while three accomplices, all underage, allegedly use a stolen credit card to get food.

Six victims are named in an incident summary, though their identities are also redacted, with the youngest just three years old. The remainder are between the ages of 18 and 32.

Tyler appeared virtually in a Garfield County court Wednesday from jail and was smiling and laughing as the hearing began, which Deputy District Attorney Tony Hershey said his Congresswoman mother listened in on.

The arrest Tuesday isn't the first time the teenage Boebert - who shares a son with an ex-girlfriend - has had a run-in with controversy.

In April of last year, a friend alleged that an accident, in which Tyler was driving, left him with multiple concussions and a debilitating hand injury.

Rep. Boebert, in a statement to DailyMail.com, said that her son should face consequences but she ultimately loves and supports him.

'I love my son Tyler, who has been through some very difficult, public challenges for a young man and the subject of attention that he didn't ask for,' she said.
