Mainly a blog type article claiming to have multiple sources so.....grain of salt and all that:

"" A shoving match in a
bathroom at a
Confederation of Clubs
meeting in Waco, Texas
exploded into a war
yesterday. Nine people
were killed, 27 people were
injured, 17 were hospitalized, two are listed in
critical condition, and 160 men were arrested
following a brawl at a chain restaurant in a
shopping center on the South Jack Kultgen
Espressway.
The fight resulted from a long simmering
dispute between members of the Bandidos
Motorcycle Club and the Cossacks and the
Scimitars Motorcycle Clubs. Curtis Jack Lewis,
president of the Abilene chapter of the
Bandidos, and Wesley Dale Mason, the
chapters’ sergeant at arms, were accused of
stabbing two Cossacks outside Logan’s
Roadhouse in Abilene in November 2013. The
two Bandidos were charged with aggravated
assault in March 2014. The Scimitars are in
the process of patching over to the Cossacks.
Other clubs in attendance at the Sunday
brunch included the Blackett Arms MC, Gypsy
MC, HonorBound Motorcycle Ministry, Renatus
MC, Escondidos MC, Sons of the South MC,
Los Pirados MC, Leathernecks MC, Vietnam
Vets/Legacy Vets MC, In Country MC and the
Tornado Motorcycle Club.
All of the arrestees are being charged under
Title 11, Section 71.02, a draconian Texas law
titled “Engaging in Organized Criminal
Activity.” According to that law, “A person
commits an offense if, with the intent to
establish, maintain, or participate in a
combination or in the profits of a combination
or as a member of a criminal street gang, the
person commits or conspires to commit one or
more of” most of the acts that are illegal in
Texas: Including possession of small amounts
of marijuana, transporting a firearm, and
possession of banned weapons like brass
knuckles and butterfly knives. Police seized
about a hundred weapons at the crime scene
Sergeant Patrick Swanton, a spokesman for
the Waco Police Department, called the
attendees. “A bunch of criminal element biker
members that came to Waco and tried to
instill violence into our community and
unfortunately did just that…. This is not a
bunch of doctors and dentists and lawyers
riding Harleys. These are criminals on Harley-
Davidsons.”
The Restaurant Did It
The Texas Region One COC and Independents
meeting was scheduled to begin at one p.m.
The fight began about 12:15. Local police had
urged the restaurant, a Hooters knock-off
called Twin Peaks, to refuse service to bikers.
Waco police claim the violence could have
prevented if Jay Patel, the operating partner at
the independently owned Waco franchise, had
simply banned the Confederation of Clubs
from meeting there. In a statement Sunday,
Patel said “our management team had had
ongoing and positive communications with
the police.”
Sergeant Swanton said, “What occurred here
today is the worst-case scenario when a
business owner puts profit over human lives.
It’s sad. This could have all been avoided.”
The restaurant has been sponsoring a bike
night on Thursdays. Local police have been
trying to convince the management to stop
that, too. It is legal in Texas, as it is in most
states, to ban the display of motorcycle club
patches in public establishments. “They were
aware that there were issues here,” Swanton
said. “It was local management here. We told
them of the issues, we tried to get assistance
in reference to dealing with these crowds but
they would not cooperate.”
Today, Front Burner Restaurants, which owns
the Twin Peaks chain, announced it was
cancelling the Waco restaurant’s franchise
agreement.
“We are in the people business and the safety
of the employees and guests in our
restaurants is priority one,” the announcement
said.
“Unfortunately the management team of the
franchised restaurant in Waco chose to ignore
the warnings and advice from both the police
and our company, and did not uphold the high
security standards we have in place to ensure
everyone is safe at our restaurants.
“We will not tolerate the actions of this
relatively new franchisee and are revoking
their franchise agreement immediately. Our
sympathies continue to be with the families of
those who died and are very thankful no
employees, guests, police officers or
bystanders were hurt or injured.”
Swanton said, “That’s a good thing for law
enforcement here. That is one issue that we
don’t have to worry about – people coming in
and creating another incident after the tragic
incident we had last night.”
Swat
When the restaurant refused to ban the
Confederation of Clubs, police stationed at
least 22 cops including at ten Swat officers
from the Waco P.D. and the Texas Department
of Public Safety in the parking lot outside the
restaurant. They did not station either
uniformed or plain clothes officers in the
restaurant.
The shove in the bathroom became a scuffle in
the restaurant. When about 30 Bandidos,
Cossacks, Scimitars and other bikers spilled
into the parking between the Twin peaks and
the Don Carlos Mexican restaurant next door,
the police were waiting for them. The scuffle
became a knife fight and several men were
stabbed. When one of the combatants
produced a gun the Swat team opened fire
with automatic weapons. Multiple sources
have told The Aging Rebel that all of the dead
were killed by police.
Swanton said the fusillade “saved lives in
keeping this from spilling into a very busy
Sunday morning. Thank goodness the officers
were here and took the action that they
needed to take to save numerous lives.”
The investigation into the massacre is being
supervised by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms and Explosives.
Since the massacre, police have announced
that there is “credible information about
threats toward law enforcement.” Waco police
issued a bulletin at 10:13 Sunday night that
announced: “Our agency has recieved (sic)
information that the Cosaks (sic) and
Banditos (sic) have issued an order to kill
anyone in uniform.”.
