Emilio Chavez III brutally beat a ‘peeping tom’ who was caught sitting outside his young daughter’s window early Thursday morning.

Instead of calling 911, cops claim that this New Mexico father chased Dylan Maho, 29, down his Albuquerque street at around 2:30 in the morning. Maho was found naked and groaning outside Chavez’s daughter’s window. When the daughter heard the noises, she thought it was a cat.

Chavez could face more charges than the pervert. If convicted, Chavez could spend three years in jail for the charge of aggravated battery– one more year than Maho could receive for charges of voyeurism.

This isn’t the first time Maho’s behavior has been called into question. Neighbors say Maho holds regular sex parties in his home.

“They call him the nudist around here. Apparently he’s been looking in other peoples’ windows,” says Bill Morang, who also believes Chavez was within his rights with chasing and beating down the suspect.

Maho was rushed to the hospital after the beating and is currently in stable condition. He will be formally charged after his release.
