Authorities say the device was placed in a position that allowed it to capture compromising footage of customers using the restroom. Investigators are now reviewing the recovered files to identify potential victims and determine how long the recording activity may have taken place.
Lupe Tortilla management stated they are cooperating fully with the investigation and assisting detectives with all available information. The restaurant also indicated that safety and privacy remain top priorities for guests and employees.
