A man found fatally shot outside a night club in Rialto this morning was a security guard there, officials said.
Police were called to the parking lot in the 300 block of E. Foothill Boulevard at 7:10 a.m. after several 911 calls poured in about shots being fired.
Officers found Ricardo Alejandro Velarde, a 23-year-old Long Beach man, dead in his parked 1998 Land Rover.
Velarde was a security guard at the El Patio night club.
No arrests have been made. Police said they are unsure what prompted the shooting.
The club "did have a famous Latino band there last night and there was a large group of patrons there," said Rialto police Officer Carla McCullough. "We don't know if it occured during club hours or if it was something that occurred afterward."
