He then followed her and her pawns to Beacon and warned the team about it when they first met. The only thing is why did Qrow then announce his arrival with an epic fight when secrecy would have been his best way and why doesn't he point them out from the Vytal Festival Fight movies?

All Qrow knows is that the people responsible for hurting Amber are at Beacon. Hence why Cinder notes he doesn't know what they look like.
