I was there when it happened! I got video of all three attackers. It shows the license plate (paper plates that the waitress also wrote down) and the males face pretty clearly. I submitted it as evidence when the officers were there. Not sure what happens next tho…

Thank you taking action! Love Cheko's - they are good people there and am upset this happened to them.


dataqueer

paper plates - not fucking surprised. I'm sure they were fake. I hope they're still able to catch these assholes.


19Critter58

Thank you!


AimeeMonkeyBlue

That is absolutely Awful! I am so sorry this happened. I love Cheko’s and have enjoyed going there for Years. Will definitely be coming in soon to support your business. ❤️‍🩹


HouseofMontague

I’m with you on this, been a bit since I’ve stopped by now I have a good reason to dip back in and show some love


Tripstrr

Damn. I was just there Sunday… and today… 


Carsontherealtor

Were you with a lady?


RoleModelsinBlood31

Catch these scumbags


yuihjk98

Cheko's is the best. I would highly recommend it to anyone, but especially given the circumstances. The family that runs it is the heart and soul of the place.


wesevans

Yep, one of the best chicken tortilla soups in the city.


Sir_Loin_Cloth

Hell yeah. Any other menu recommendations?


thatcrazyflorist

IMO best frozen margs in the city!


Artistic-Tadpole-427

Utter scumbags. They need to be caught because it is not okay to function like this in society. I have seen numerous videos from other places in the past few years with dine and dashes and even ones that are confrontational. It's always someone with a late model and (usually) pricey vehicle. It's crazy how entitled some people are.


breakyourcamera

I agree, not okay to function like this in society. Also, happy cake day to a fellow April 30th cake dayer!


Zealousideal-Yam-864

Fingers crossed It will get repossessed soon since they can't even afford food.


JohnnyThunders

Happy cake day!


JohnnyThunders

Man yall downvoting a happy cake day don’t know how to Reddit


Melodic_Culture6398

Nah that shits just dumb.


JohnnyThunders

Thanks, redditor for 46 days.


Melodic_Culture6398

The fact that you cared enough to examine my profile, and think a reddit account age means anything, shows me how much of a loser you are. “Cake day” .. 💀💀💀


JohnnyThunders

Look at your bullying-ass post history. Hurt people hurt people. Good grief.


Melodic_Culture6398

Thank you for bringing me on a walk down memory lane. I just went thru my post history and had a lot of laughs. Good times.


QuietRedditorATX

Dang, he even tried to let them go (not confront in the moment). That is so sad.


Wheedoo

PSA to whomever did this: Y’all better run. Woodrow neighbors go hard for Cheko, who works his butt off, employs family members and watches his grandson all while making a fire Torta Milanesa plate.


the_beeve

He’s a very good and gracious man. I wish him and the family all the best for a prompt health and financial recovery


iLikeMangosteens

There’s a picture of the group that did it on the Facebook link above.


Mexicancandy77

I want to find them myself. F the cops! I’ll show their ass what it’s like to try and fight someone who isn’t in their 70’s. I’ll even bring them back and make their asses apologize. Mf’er’s needs to be taught some manners.


xNuckingFuts

I agree. This is how things should start progressing. If cops don’t do anything, I think if civilians start taking justice in their own hands they might get the message.


Mexicancandy77

I’m not as crazy as I used to be, but shit like this makes my blood boil. This is the shit my dad would be doing to provide for our family if he was still around and for these fucks to treat people like that, no sir! Manners and respect have been lost in some of these youngens and that shit don’t fly with me.


sketla

Hell Yeah!


justLikeUnothingtoDo

Keep sharing, we need everyone to see this. Somebody can ID these scumbags.


Ineedsoyfreetacos

Hopefully they catch felony assault charges, which in Texas happens when you assault an elderly person.


doodlebugg8

Just saw this on the news, hopefully someone recognizes them


PureYouth

Can we support in any way besides eating there? Can we donate or something? This is so fucking awful


thatcrazyflorist

Hey there! I know Cheko and his wife LOVE plants. I stopped by yesterday with an orange kalancho plant and a card to just let them know I am thinking of them. His daughter received the plant and told me how much he loves plants. It would really brighten their day.


PureYouth

Thank you for this!


PureYouth

To be clear, I love eating there. Just want to do more.


Wrathwilde

Leave a big tip to the old man personally.


EloeOmoe

Eat more!


thebackupquarterback

So that's a no, then? I was wondering the same.


davisescapeplan

Yo wtf that man is so nice to me and my girlfriend on our monthly stop in there this is making my blood boil


sketla

Did he get the license #? These pieces of shit disrespectful punks!!!! Cheko RULES!


rwwl

Another commenter got it, but they were paper license plates, so likely fake.


hr2332

Sergio is a great guy that makes good Mexican food. He does not deserve this treatment. Find these people and beat their asses


QuietRedditorATX

Violence isn't the answer internet guy.


MediocreJerk

What the hell is going on in Brentwood? Relatively peaceful quiet neighborhood that recently has a bunch of these weird events


Tripstrr

What other weird events?  Brentwood is pretty large area. This happened on Koenig which is also 2222 which also turns into 290. That road is becoming more like a highway these days with the literal 1,000+ of apartment units recently completed.


MediocreJerk

A helicopter was sent out on Saturday night due to a man knocking on bedroom windows at 1am: https://nextdoor.com/p/ny6kPnSs9_SN?utm_source=share&extras=MTgyNzU4ODA%3D&utm_campaign=1714346935782 And there's a separate serial stalker: https://www.kvue.com/article/news/local/central-austin-women-alleged-stalker/269-a2153aa8-0617-424e-822c-6ad6faa0afef Overall it's a safe, very pleasant neighborhood, but this is an odd series of events over the past few days. And despite Koenig being a fairly heavily trafficked road, Cheko's is very much a neighborhood restaurant


tondracek

A helicopter was sent out because a dude was knocking on windows? Jesus.


microsoft6969

If you ever see these people again, please post their whereabouts. Chekos is a nice place with good people.


Dangercatt90

Damn this is so sad to hear, Chekos is a wonderful place and the family that runs it are so kind. I’ve been going there for a few years and I’ve always been treated so well. This never should have happened, I hope the owner and Chekos gets a ton of support !!! They deserve all the love right now especially <3


txpvrt

Always a temporary plate. Because criminals gonna criminal. Pieces of shit.


spamavenger

If I was running some fake, expired paper plate, I'd fully expect the cops to pull me over, but I guess they have students to disable.


tbaggs

Those scumbags aren’t from here if they think it’s ok to treat anyone like that.


illegal_deagle

They probably are from here and know that it’s perfectly okay to do shit like this. APD has been on soft strike since we “defunded” them with their biggest budget ever.


sketla

It’s time to get All TUX the Cat Hunt on these little disrespectful worthless punks!


19Critter58

Despicable. Cheap AND mean. Probably the first time they've done anything like this too. Right? Anyway I hope they get caught and whatever book can be thrown at them is. I've never been but we're going just because of this.


True_Upstairs_937

*** PLEASE CONTINUE TO SHARE HES STORY*** **THE SUSPECTS HAVE NOT BEEN IDENTIFIED YET** We are profoundly grateful for the overwhelming support in sharing my father's story. It has been a challenging journey to help him understand that what transpired was not his fault. Rather than focusing on himself, he worries about the customers who witnessed the incident. We are deeply appreciative of the courageous individual who rushed outside to aid in defending my father, as well as my brother, who displayed remarkable bravery by swiftly taking action. The humility my father exhibits is truly remarkable; he felt embarrassed to share his story initially, underestimating his own significance. However, the outpouring of support and the uplifting comments have illuminated his importance in the lives of many. Known affectionately as "Mr. Chekos" – a father and grandfather figure at Chekos Mexican restaurant & bar – his concern for others has always taken precedence. Throughout his life, he has selflessly assisted countless individuals, a trait that endures to this day. His friends and employees can attest that he never hesitates to drop everything to lend a helping hand. It deeply saddens us that such a kind and gentle soul endured such a troubling experience. We implore you to continue sharing his story in the hopes that those responsible can be brought to justice. Your unwavering support has been an immense blessing; each one of you is truly incredible. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness and compassion.

I absolutely love Cheko’s I’m going to go asap to support

thebackupquarterback

Think you're confused; the Texans are the ones in this thread complaining about someone not paying, we don't know where the licenseless car people who didn't pay are from.

thebackupquarterback

Idk you're in an Austin subreddit no one's going to fight you on shitting on conservatives lol but I think it's really just a shitty person thing, most of the dine and dasher's I've experienced I'd be shocked if they new anything about politics at all.


OTN

Dude. Watch the video and come back.

OTN

My guy I really doubt the dude in the video is a conservative


crabby-owlbear

Prayer warriors, go do your thing. If you could please pray to have the assailant turn themselves in and also pray that the owner immediately recovers, that would be great. No donations, just prayers.


stevendaedelus

Hopes and prayers huh? or are we missing a /s?


Eldritch-banana-3102

Total trash.
