Bouncer dies after parking lot altercation

A bouncer who removed a patron from the Rodeo Club at 2700 S. Georgia Street is dead after a scuffle in the parking lot.

Kenneth Friemel, 24, died from being stabbed with a knife in the chest.

Flavio Joe Baca, a 30-year-old Hereford man, is suspected of causing Friemel's death.

Friemel had removed Baca from the nightclub on request from female employees. The two men apparently exchanged words in the parking lot and began to scuffle, resulting in Fiemel's fatal injuries.

Baca fled the scene but was later arrested in the small town of Dawn.
