A brazen burglary at Taqueria San Jose occurred on May 4, 2026, in Little Chute, Wisconsin. Thieves stole around $4,000 from an ATM in just two minutes. The incident took place at 5:34 a.m., and surveillance footage captured the entire event.
The owner of Taqueria San Jose, Leticia Navarro, has run the restaurant for 20 years. She expressed her shock after viewing the surveillance video. “I ran to the cameras and saw them leaving,” Navarro said. “I was very scared. Thank God it happened when no one was there.”
This theft underscores the challenges faced by local businesses. As Navarro deals with the aftermath, another Mexican restaurant prepares to open nearby.
Upcoming restaurant opening:
- El Charro Mexican Grill is set to open a new location at 137C W. Main St. in Little Chute.
- The former Stone Arch Tied House closed on February 10.
- El Charro also operates a location at 103 W. Huron St. in Berlin.
The official opening date for El Charro’s Little Chute location is currently unclear. Community members are eager to see new dining options emerge despite recent events.
