Officers responded after a gunshot was heard inside Club Rio and found 21-year-old Luis Rodriguez on the floor with an apparent gunshot wound to the abdomen. He later died from that wound.

Earlier that evening a verbal altercation involved a bouncer and a patron over an alleged disrespect toward the bouncer’s girlfriend. After the bouncer ended his shift he returned to the club intending to find that patron to take him outside to fight. Another bouncer accompanied him but the two became separated before locating the patron. Moments later a gunshot was heard on the crowded dance floor; the first bouncer went to the stairs and left the scene.

If anyone has information about what happened at Club Rio that night, please come forward.
