Shortly after 3:00 a.m. on October 30, 2016, Kansas City police found 33-year-old Andres Jimenez-Garcia dead from a gunshot wound to the chest in the parking lot outside Palmeras Disco at 6900 Executive Drive near the 1600 block of Universal Avenue. Witnesses say a bump inside the nightclub led to a verbal argument; Jimenez-Garcia left, was followed into the parking lot, and the other man fired once into the ground before shooting him.
Investigators tied a jacket containing a cellphone left at the scene to a suspect. In April 2017 prosecutors charged 24-year-old Juan J. Bravo-Leon with second-degree murder, first-degree assault, and two counts of armed criminal action. Detectives reported Bravo-Leon admitted to shooting Jimenez-Garcia but described it as an accident.
Does anyone have information about the confrontation inside the club or about what happened in the parking lot that morning?
