A 22-year-old Marine Corps veteran is dead from injuries suffered from an apparent assault reported Sunday at a Stevinson bar, the Merced County Sheriff’s Department told the Merced Sun-Star.

Miguel De La Cruz of Newman had been placed on life support, but was pronounced dead by Monday evening, deputies said.

De La Cruz apparently was involved in a large brawl around 2 a.m. Sunday in the parking lot of the Stevinson Bar and Grill in the 20000 block of Third Avenue in Stevinson, Sgt. Delray Shelton said.

Exactly what happened remained unclear Monday, and investigators are seeking information about the incident from the public.

“Detectives are really hoping someone from the public comes forward to help identify any patrons who may have been at the bar that night,” Detective Sgt. Chuck Hale said.
