3 tires flat dont know if they got slashed or bead got popped

last night i go up to my truck and see my 3 truxs m/t tires totally flat. i brought my spare set and changed them. on the way home i went to put air in the tires to see where they are leaking from. i saw bubbles of air coming out from the bead. do you guys think that someone stuck a crowbar between the rim and tire and popped the bead or do you think that they cut the bead. im thinking that the bead is wayy too thick to cut easily.

if you've ever tried to pop the bead off, you know it cant be done with a crowbar... it requires a highlift and a truck... have you been wheeling lately?
