Earlier Saturday night, a bartender at Tequila KC Bar refused to serve one of the suspects, and he allegedly threw a cup at the bartender before fellow patrons at the bar helped eject him. According to Fox News, it is not clear if the man was Villanueva-Morales or Alatorre, but he returned to the bar after last call around 1 a.m. with the second man, and opened fire.

“It’s a pretty small bar …You have two guys come in, start shooting, people are just running. People are just running wherever they can,” Kansas City police spokesperson T.J. Tomasic told the Kansas City Star.

Authorities have not yet identified the deceased or injured victims. The five who were injured are all expected to survive.
