Vasile Ballios, a 44-year-old Greek immigrant, was shot and killed late on February 7, 1992, outside the Private Eyes Too Club at 61st Street and Passyunk Avenue in Philadelphia. Although the killing happened in the city, reports describe Ballios as a Middletown, Delaware County man who had previously lived in Chester and Brookhaven. He was a husband, a father of two, and worked for years as a painter and painting supervisor.

The night turned violent inside the go-go bar, which was reported to be frequented by motorcyclists. Ballios and a friend, Luke Clark, were jumped by three men inside; the fight spilled outside and Ballios was shot in the head as he tried to get to his truck. Clark survived and was treated at a hospital for head cuts.

Michael J. Gallagher, 35, of Somerville, New Jersey, identified as a member of the Pagans motorcycle club, was accused of firing the fatal shot. He was tried in Philadelphia Common Pleas Court, convicted after a two-week trial of first-degree murder and related weapons offenses, and sentenced to life imprisonment; his bail was revoked after the verdict.

Did anyone who knew Ballios or was at the club that night see the confrontation or the three men who started the fight?
