A Bexar County grand jury has indicted a 30-year-old San Antonio man who was arrested in July after he was captured on video grabbing a “Make America Great Again” cap from a teenager who was dining at a San Antonio Whataburger.

Bexar County court records show Kino Jimenez was indicted Wednesday on a charge of theft of person, which is a state jail felony. He was located in Universal City in July by San Antonio police robbery task force detectives who took him into custody on an arrest warrant.

The story made national news after a video went viral on the Internet. In it, 16-year-old Hunter Richard is shown eating with friends around 2 a.m. at a North Side Whataburger at Nacogdoches and Thousand Oaks. The video begins halfway through an altercation that captured a man suspected of being Jimenez throwing a drink in Richard’s face and walking out of the restaurant with a red “Make America Great Again” cap in his hand that Richard later said belonged to him.

I think justice would be well served by both sides if the following were allowed to occur. The prosecuting side should offer the case be dropped if: In the courtroom a stand-in for the teenager (biker, hard hat or another chosen by the teenager) ask that the event at the burger joint be re-enacted with Kino throwing a drink in the stand-in’s face and taking the MAGA hat. None of the participants would be held responsible, regardless of the outcome, of this courtroom event. Outcome: tit for tat.
