LONGVIEW — A Longview man has been arrested after police said he choked a woman at Texas Roadhouse on Loop 281. The Longview News-Journal reports Anthony Venegas, 27, was being held Monday on a $5,000 bond stemming from the incident Sunday night. According to the probable cause affidavit for his arrest, an employee of the steakhouse told Longview police that Venegas struck the woman and said the victim would not disrespect him. “The employee said that she saw the victim lose consciousness. The employee then said that (the victim) seemed to wake up after the subject let her go and saw the victim throw peanuts at the subject and left,” the judicial document said. Police said they saw red marks around the victim’s throat. Venegas would not answer any questions, police said.
