Two men have been arrested for murder after a fatal stabbing at a Fort Myers nightclub early Sunday morning.

According to the Fort Myers Police Department, officers arrived at El Patron Nightclub on Palm Beach Boulevard on Sunday shortly before 2 a.m.

Officers immediately assisted a security guard who had detained one of the suspects and began searching the area for a second suspect who had fled on foot.

Homicide detectives arrived on the scene and, through witness statements, were able to locate a home and detain the other suspect involved.

Based on all evidence collected from a search warrant of the home, witness statements and surveillance, suspects Domingo Rudy Velasco Ostuma, 25, and Jacinto Lopez-Sanchez, 24, have been charged with second-degree murder.

The reason for the stabbing remains unknown.

Both suspects remain in the Lee County Jail.
