this is how it is in some places. san antonio, same thing. we can't get drug dealers, arsonists, arrested because even if we have video of lots of stuff, no action takes place. the police don't want to arrest someone that the DA won't prosecute here.
doesn't hurt to help yourself and others if you've found a crime, but only the police can arrest and the legal system prosecute, if you find it's corrupt, or just ineffective, then get involved in your city and county politics and do something about it.

Maybe a higher ranking law enforcement official in that area, is friends with the thief. This guy has all the evidence needed and no arrests? Unacceptable!!!
Great possibility! Any reasonable person would make that deduction, because there's been many cases where police were involved in criminal activity and cover ups.
I think the answer is simple, police really are incompetent at their jobs. I don’t blame them because they only do what the law allows them and or their leadership.
Restaurant owners are known for feeding the police, and that sounds like a nice thing to do, BUT some owners believe they have those policemen in their pocket for a rainy day. Looks like rain in Fort Worth area.
I like this business owner , he stands on integrity, hes proud of his business, being a business owner is the hardest thing ive ever done in life, many businesses go out of business and its not for the faint of heart , shame on other businesses stealing from fellow entrepreneurs!
The confidence in his story and his businesses livelihood is astoundingly straightforward and direct in his interview. Good push back in the interview weeding out anyone who thinks this is a personal dispute between restaurant owners. WTF are the cops doing to stop this theft ring? Godspeed sir!
Thieves and liars make me sick. Hard working Americans need justice. The courts give light sentences and say, “it’s just a property crime.” Give me a break!!
They're too busy enforcing policy. They gave my mom a seat belt ticket on mother's day. They should be proud. Law enforcement is a joke they violate rights and generate money through tickets that's about all they do. That and cry about how dangerous their job is. The scarab citizen is a crook to law enforcement that's why they ask so many questions on a traffic stop so you will incriminate yourself on something. They are worried about tint on windows being too dark for officer safety.
ARLINGTON, Texas - A second restaurant is now accusing a Fort Worth cafe of stealing its equipment, a week after a popular barbecue joint said DayBreak Cafe was in on the theft of a $30,000 smoker trailer from its parking lot.
If it's a big enough operation, it's possible the state has an undercover agent in the chop shop next door and they don't want to jeopardize the operation.
As every smart business owner should. He's got all his i's dotted and t's crossed. He's responsible for not only his family's livelihood but also his employees' and their families. This is the kind of employer you wanna work for.

I thought this video has million views so already that restaurant must have got hundreds of bad reviews from internet on google maps but all the reviews were positive so i thought maybe i was at wrong restaurant but after double checking i realised that the restaurant is correct and reviews option is not available so it looks like google is protecting this restaurant from getting bad reviews. So strange. We should name and shame this restaurant but google is allowing them to continue.

I feel you, couple years ago an employee's "boyfriend" stole bank account info off a payroll check of her's, printed fake checks of our business, and cashed about 30k worth of checks in two days... Well my wife being a Private Investor and her Step Father being with Homeland Security within 24 hours were able to figure out who it was, where he lived, the fact he was dating 4 or more women and doing this to all of them... local cities and county law enforcement was contacted. He was arrested with fake printed and made out checks for our company and two others. He was released almost immediately, no further charges were made, even though we said we wanted to press charges... Couldn't persue hiring a lawyer ourselves due to cost, and we are a small business. I guess it wasn't enough money for the cities or counties to care about to protect us.
I live about 30 mins NW of Atlanta Georgia, but went to his Google Map review page and left five stars on Panther City's page. I was very impressed with how Chris maintained his integrity and professionalism while completing this interview. 👍🏼👍🏼 I am also very supportive of him going out and simply observing the persons in question after retrieving his property back.
Yeah, that’s exactly how most small businesses operate. Which is why it’s imperative to protect them from theft, robbery, targeted persecution by power-hungry politicians, etc
I'm based in Melbourne, Australia & this sort of thing happens here too. After the lockdowns things are still very hard for hospitality establishments. It's horrible.
When the owner said all they had to do was ask if they needed to borrow his barbecue pit , and he would have let them because he lended it out several times, let's me know he is truly a genuine person. I pray he gets his grill back it's so expensive.
@ogcosmo oh ok I'm so happy for the owner and his employees. It's not cool at all to steal from people they can't pay their bill's, eat, or make ends meet for their families smh. It needs to be more job's for felons, and the poor even if they don't have ID or social because the stealing is never going to stop if there isn't any resources to get money. It's just a sad situation that needs to be addressed.
Police really don't care about property theft. Takes too much time to investigate and there's no money in it for them. They will almost always tell you to just file an insurance claim. They are all about speeding tickets and violations they can fine you for.
Props to Chris for not just stopping with getting his trailer back. You have to really care about others to keep digging after recovering your stolen property. Way to be a neighbor.

@@truth4004They wouldn't! Because they could have, with all the hard evidence this man provided them. However, in American, criminal law, the responsibility to prove guilt is on the government/courts. The Defendant does not have to prove Innocence. They can plead the 5th amendment and say nothing.
God Bless this man and share his message "look out for your neighbor" is one of the most wholesome statements a man could make when given the chance to say what he would like to. I hope this man gets flooded with business he deserves it
They may have gone there INCOGNITO ( full uniform) to gather evidence !?!?!? asking for a friend KUDOS to this Owner, much respect! police are jacking him around
Cops are run of the mill criminals with government privileges these days. Why would they not be behind a theft ring ignored by police? Some free food is enough to bribe police.
Had a friend that went to Texas with a group of his friends on a hunting trip. Had thousands in hunting and camping gear in their vehicles. Stopped at a restaurant to eat- came out and all their vehicles and belongings had been stolen while they were eating. I always suspected someone in the restaurant had tipped off the thief and most likely seated them where they could not watch their stuff ( away from windows).
There are the farmers where I live in Arkansas had the same thing happened to their friends who came a couple of weeks ago For a hunting trip and all their stuff got stolen exactly like that out of memphis. They stopped to go eat before they went to the airport.
I’m planning a 1 week long spring break camping trip with my sons in a Texas state park and never even imagined that someone would do that. Thanks for the heads up because now when we stop for dinner on our trip, I’ll be watching my truck like a hawk
Kudos to this good man for looking out for his neighbors and fellow business owners and not just turning a cowardly blind eye after he had gotten his equipment back.
There aren't enough police in fort worth to investigate all of the violent crimes, let alone property crimes. Those cops are solving the backlog of assault and homicide cases, would you prefer they be looking for stolen propane tanks? Or will you go become a cop and solve those cases? No because complaining on the internet is way easier. Aren't nirvana fallacies fun.
When you defund the police departments and won't back them any longer, let alone how many officers have been shot, ran over and killed in the past 3 years, what do you expect. Then you have the court system which will end up letting out anyway. The courts do charge some hefty fines, so they see a profit. Our government is to blame for this mess, not the police.
He’s so smart. Not just for all this but for protecting himself. “I didn’t say no names, I didn’t name any businesses” you did not sir and as much as people may push, don’t for now until the business is legally being pursued. Protect yourself and your family.
Panther City is some of the best BBQ I've ever had & the employees are amazing. Whoever these scumbags are that are messing with them, Karma will come for you. Appreciate this owner & the dedication he has to his livelihood & those that work with him.
It's incredible the things that other people do to other folks and live like nothing is happening. They feel no remorse, guilt etc... I hope people support this business owner he seems like a hardworking person honest business owner. People who cheat, scam or con others to get ahead should be locked up.
This video, should be sent out all over. He needs to be to be well known all over; he would make an excellent sheriff or police or detective captain, no doubt about that. He he surely a man of integrity and right principle. I salute you sir and those who took part in the man who you have become. God bless you and may HE also protect you and your family plus employees. Amen!
I can't stand thieves... I have been through 2 home thefts. Thank you for having the courage and kindness to save both your business and your neighborhood. If I ever get to Fort Worth I will go to your restaurant furst thing.
This guy is handling things just right and what a good guy too. The people who are stealing the equipment are so greedy, and are only thinking of them selves as this gentleman pointed out it’s not only the owners losing business it’s the employees who rely on the owners who are losing jobs there’s too many greedy people in this world. I wonder if the suspects employees are afraid of him maybe that’s why or part of why he hasn’t been caught yet I hope whoever’s involved in this disgusting quest gets caught and I hope the other victims are able to still keep their businesses. People don’t think when they do stupid crimes like this there’s so many people who are victims not just the owners of these establishments.
This man is AMAZING! So glad he speaking up and that he DID get his equipment back. NOW its time for the thieves to answer for their crimes. SOMEBODY KNOWS who this thief is and who all is involved. I PRAY they find out real soon. AND I PRAY for this man and his business to be protected...... IN JESUS NAME.
small communities need leaders like him to stand up for their neighbors, to really care about each other. To hold people accountable if they take advantage of others. I'm proud of him for sticking up for his community and respecting his employees jobs.
@@yeudoi66 I wish we lived in a world where police protected. But consider, how would you set it up? At what cost? How much would you raise taxes? Who watches the watchmen?
I'm sure these cops got the same training as the Uvalde Police and are just "standing by" for the word to go forward. They say those cops are STILL waiting in the hallways... I wonder if that "suspicious restaurant owner", is giving the police "free food", and that is why that aren't acting on the EVIDENCE, that was collected for them.
Great job, we need more people supporting small business, I know the pain, we had thieves take everything from our business over $200,000 which has forced us to close 😢
Props 👏🏼 to you Panther City BBQ! Don’t be intimidated by lowdown unethical thieves! I applaud you for your investigative work and exposing these thieves! I would patronize your business if I lived near by. I hope your quest for accountability brings Panther City BBQ many blessings!
Such a man with great intelligence, honesty and integrity to investigate a crime against him. This gentleman has every right to go after a thief! And the person or shall I say thief, who respectfully remains nameless, should have his name, business and everything else associated with him and his business smeared all over social media as a lyin, no good for nothin, taking from others THIEF!! OFF WITH HIS HANDS, THEN PUT BEHIND BARS TO THINK ABOUT HIS CRIME! Great job Panther City BBQ, Fort Worth, TX we love you 😊
What a great interview - so thankful he's so supportive of everyone in his industry & rallying against those corrupt within it. He's put those involved on notice that they won't stand for it & aren't going to stoop low & engage in a social media war. It sounds to me, as if there is some greasing of the palms of someone inside the law enforcement community to NOT take this case seriously, despite the evidence already provided to LE.....something doesn't pass the sniff test, FWPD...
Business owner robbed of $30000 equipment, he tracks it down and performs a sting operation himself. Cops are giving tickets for speeding
Exactly! FWPD is corrupt and doesn't care about its citizens. I wldnt be surprised if they're in on it.
Don’t blame the police. The detectives have to do a thorough investigation so that the criminals will fail in court
Cops don’t even give speeding tickets anymore. Only state troopers giving speeding tickets on the toll roads.
They made a stop and seized the van. But they need info to make arrests. Police have been working on it.

However, in American, criminal law, the responsibility to prove guilt is on the government/courts. The Defendant does not have to prove Innocence. They can plead the 5th amendment and say nothing.
Absolutely agree with you sir. These foolish people who put their hands on other people's property need to face real consequences.
God Bless this man and share his message "look out for your neighbor" is one of the most wholesome statements a man could make when given the chance to say what he would like to. I hope this man gets flooded with business he deserves it
the fact the police are doing nothing and still eating there leads me to believe they do know 🤦♂️
Exactly! FWPD are useless and corrupt. They don't care about their hard working citizens.
That's what I'm thinking too.
They may have gone there INCOGNITO ( full uniform) to gather evidence !?!?!? asking for a friend KUDOS to this Owner, much respect! police are jacking him around
Did they tip off the van driver to bug out?
Cops are run of the mill criminals with government privileges these days. Why would they not be behind a theft ring ignored by police? Some free food is enough to bribe police.
This man should be the Police Chief of Fort Worth.
Lead detective, perhaps ?
No, not without the proper background education.
I'm sure he wouldn't want that type of Responsibility he just wants to do right and for people to do right to, Blessings and Support to His Business
he has the right heart for it
Facts!
You are a good man. You desire justice!! We need more people like you.
Saw it on the news. Thanks for the update. 😊🙏🏼
Had a friend that went to Texas with a group of his friends on a hunting trip. Had thousands in hunting and camping gear in their vehicles. Stopped at a restaurant to eat- came out and all their vehicles and belongings had been stolen while they were eating. I always suspected someone in the restaurant had tipped off the thief and most likely seated them where they could not watch their stuff ( away from windows).
😮
😮😮😮
There are the farmers where I live in Arkansas had the same thing happened to their friends who came a couple of weeks ago For a hunting trip and all their stuff got stolen exactly like that out of memphis. They stopped to go eat before they went to the airport.
I’m planning a 1 week long spring break camping trip with my sons in a Texas state park and never even imagined that someone would do that. Thanks for the heads up because now when we stop for dinner on our trip, I’ll be watching my truck like a hawk
Stop lying! Nobody in Texas stole your stuff. Clout chaser!
*PANTHER CITY BBQ*
Show this restaurant some love.
I'm going to eat there soon
Okay 😊
Do you know the name of the cafe in question?
@@nofurtherwest3474That’s what I’m wondering as well.
@@nofurtherwest3474daybreak cafe, forth worth. They turned off yelp reviews so don’t bother 😂
This man was really well spoken and deserves to be listened to. Nobody should have their livelihood stolen !
Mad respect to this bloke for the time and effort he has put in to help other people. Best of luck to you mate.
This guy should release the footage he has on the internet/youtube and as 100% solidly identified, show the suspects names and their movements.
Kudos to this good man for looking out for his neighbors and fellow business owners and not just turning a cowardly blind eye after he had gotten his equipment back.
Great investigator! Surveillance! Surveillance! Surveillance! Then again I'm a security Surveillance engineer.
Good For You Bro, Stand Your Ground FULL COURT PRESS! DON'T LET THAT SLIDE!!!
Panther City, if I’m in the area you can count on my business 👍
Honesty and integrity go a long way.
glad this story is exposing to so many just how useless the police are
There aren't enough police in fort worth to investigate all of the violent crimes, let alone property crimes. Those cops are solving the backlog of assault and homicide cases, would you prefer they be looking for stolen propane tanks? Or will you go become a cop and solve those cases? No because complaining on the internet is way easier. Aren't nirvana fallacies fun.
When you defund the police departments and won't back them any longer, let alone how many officers have been shot, ran over and killed in the past 3 years, what do you expect. Then you have the court system which will end up letting out anyway. The courts do charge some hefty fines, so they see a profit. Our government is to blame for this mess, not the police.
They always have been lol their only job is to harass people of color
investigations are not fast. they get all the payers if they take a little longer. not just the driver and one owner. there are far more.
Isn’t Fort Worth libtarded now?
That’s a good man right there. From another resident, thank you sir! You are a good neighbor and did your civic duty. ❤
This gentleman looked out for his community-Thank you sir (and good for you making sure you and yours were kept safe)!
He’s so smart. Not just for all this but for protecting himself. “I didn’t say no names, I didn’t name any businesses” you did not sir and as much as people may push, don’t for now until the business is legally being pursued. Protect yourself and your family.
Panther City is some of the best BBQ I've ever had & the employees are amazing. Whoever these scumbags are that are messing with them, Karma will come for you. Appreciate this owner & the dedication he has to his livelihood & those that work with him.
so gps trackin didint work?
This is who needs to be on the police force.
What do you recommend?
karma isn't real
THE BBQ IS SO GOOD and the employees are so nice.
It's incredible the things that other people do to other folks and live like nothing is happening. They feel no remorse, guilt etc... I hope people support this business owner he seems like a hardworking person honest business owner. People who cheat, scam or con others to get ahead should be locked up.
His take on what to do to help neighbors is amazing and can’t agree more. Let’s put our cellphones to good use, not just for clicks
This is Sick! I'm so glad you were brave enough to keep going! Do not allow this! TURN HIM IN!
We need more people like him, he’s not scared, way to go🙏🏽always speak up!!!
This guy should be running the police department if not lead detective!
This video, should be sent out all over. He needs to be to be well known all over; he would make an excellent sheriff or police or detective captain, no doubt about that. He he surely a man of integrity and right principle. I salute you sir and those who took part in the man who you have become. God bless you and may HE also protect you and your family plus employees. Amen!
Respect for this gentleman. Sharing this out to my friends in Texas.
Daybreak Cafe is the place
Lol I doubt your white friends would care about this amigo
It didn’t happen in Texas, it happened in Ft. Worth, IN.
Good detective work and protecting your property
Chris, thank you for having the courage to speak up. 💜🙏🏾
It used to be called Neighborhood Watch, now it’s called Watch Neighbor
Why didn't they help him??? Do their jobs???
God bless this business owner.
I can't stand thieves... I have been through 2 home thefts. Thank you for having the courage and kindness to save both your business and your neighborhood. If I ever get to Fort Worth I will go to your restaurant furst thing.
If you have property stolen in the Fort Worth area, contact this man, because the local police won’t do a thing to recover it. But he will.
Daybreak Cafe going down
Which is terrible because they’re food is terrific 😂😂😂
@@haywoodmakesmelaugh they probably stole the ingredients and recipes too.
😅😅@@jessicahawks3223
@@jessicahawks3223daybreak has been around a lot longer than panther
Food at daybreak is incredibly cheap but like gas station quality.
Since the cops have the evidence. They need to react.
Not if their pockets are lined by that oshady business owner
@@ritzbrecioprobably related
They also despise civilians who do a better job investigating than them.
Lessons to be learned here but one of many is to remain calm as possible, collected.
Collect info & be patient.
This guy is handling things just right and what a good guy too. The people who are stealing the equipment are so greedy, and are only thinking of them selves as this gentleman pointed out it’s not only the owners losing business it’s the employees who rely on the owners who are losing jobs there’s too many greedy people in this world. I wonder if the suspects employees are afraid of him maybe that’s why or part of why he hasn’t been caught yet I hope whoever’s involved in this disgusting quest gets caught and I hope the other victims are able to still keep their businesses. People don’t think when they do stupid crimes like this there’s so many people who are victims not just the owners of these establishments.
That is a smart caring restaurant owner! 🙂 His concern for his employees' livelihoods is praiseworthy too! Thank goodness he had video surveillance!
This man is AMAZING! So glad he speaking up and that he DID get his equipment back. NOW its time for the thieves to answer for their crimes. SOMEBODY KNOWS who this thief is and who all is involved. I PRAY they find out real soon. AND I PRAY for this man and his business to be protected...... IN JESUS NAME.
Amen. 🙏🏼✝️♥️
Yes
Stealing a man’s BBQ pit in the state of Texas should be a capital offense! Come on Fort Worth! WTH.??
Why is the interviewer blurred out?
This is just Sad. Lock them up.
this man is a HERO !!! salute to this man and wish him and his family blessings !
Today's lesson....put an AirTag on your pit trailer 🤣.
small communities need leaders like him to stand up for their neighbors, to really care about each other. To hold people accountable if they take advantage of others. I'm proud of him for sticking up for his community and respecting his employees jobs.
Heaven forbid law enforcement does anything to “serve and protect”
If they wont protect children they are absolutely not going to protect peoples property.
Sorry they can’t protect you or me Supreme Court rulings 😊
We've seen the uselessness of Texas law enforcement during Uvalde.
@@yeudoi66
I wish we lived in a world where police protected.
But consider, how would you set it up? At what cost? How much would you raise taxes?
Who watches the watchmen?
REVENUE !!! police are revenue generators.. tickets do way more than crime fighting..
once the police show that they’re dragging there feet and this owner takes matters into his own hands, no one should be mad or press charges etc..
Why do ameritards struggle with English?
Just like Abbott and the border crisis
A Good Man, and a friend of his community. They should be thankful for having a Protector.
*now this is journalism! Great work and also to this business owner!*
Stand on your ground and tell them like it is. You’re really care for your employees and the city you live in. 👍👍👍👍.
You already won. You still have your integrity and that's what matters most. You are a fine man. I hope everything works out well for you ❤
I'm sure these cops got the same training as the Uvalde Police and are just "standing by" for the word to go forward. They say those cops are STILL waiting in the hallways...
I wonder if that "suspicious restaurant owner", is giving the police "free food", and that is why that aren't acting on the EVIDENCE, that was collected for them.
When your doing this much work, i say you "handle" the theives too 😂😂😂
What a kind loyal owner, and he is concerned about his competitors.
Blessings from London UK
DAYBREAK CAFE
LETS CLOSE THIS SHOP UP.
CALL N LEAVE REVIEWS
Not defending the place but theirs literally a dump yard next to it where random people park their vehicles.
@prosmartdetailing6621 they literally have the restaurant van on tape at locations where other equipment was stolen. It's not that difficult
@@prosmartdetails*there’s
They stole it…
@@prosmartdetailsthe owner is on video 😂
Great job, we need more people supporting small business, I know the pain, we had thieves take everything from our business over $200,000 which has forced us to close 😢
If you buy any expensive equipment make sure you have a tracker hidden on it
Props 👏🏼 to you Panther City BBQ! Don’t be intimidated by lowdown unethical thieves! I applaud you for your investigative work and exposing these thieves! I would patronize your business if I lived near by. I hope your quest for accountability brings Panther City BBQ many blessings!
Red blooded American right there hope it all works out for you. You are doing the right thing for sure without a doubt
Such a man with great intelligence, honesty and integrity to investigate a crime against him. This gentleman has every right to go after a thief! And the person or shall I say thief, who respectfully remains nameless, should have his name, business and everything else associated with him and his business smeared all over social media as a lyin, no good for nothin, taking from others THIEF!! OFF WITH HIS HANDS, THEN PUT BEHIND BARS TO THINK ABOUT HIS CRIME! Great job Panther City BBQ, Fort Worth, TX we love you 😊
What a great interview - so thankful he's so supportive of everyone in his industry & rallying against those corrupt within it. He's put those involved on notice that they won't stand for it & aren't going to stoop low & engage in a social media war. It sounds to me, as if there is some greasing of the palms of someone inside the law enforcement community to NOT take this case seriously, despite the evidence already provided to LE.....something doesn't pass the sniff test, FWPD...
The police aren't moving either bc they probably frequent that restaurant themselves and rub shoulders with the owner. Trust and believe, THEY KNOW! 😡
Sometimes they or they family are in it.
Exactly
