A shooting early Monday outside a popular East Side bar left one Fort Bliss soldier dead and another facing a murder charge.

El Paso police said an altercation broke out just after 1 a.m. inside the Three Legged Monkey and then spilled into the parking lot where Spc. Zareef Quasim Saleel allegedly shot Spc. Alex Gabriel Jaime once in the chest, killing him.

Police and paramedics arrived to find Jaime, 23, dead in the parking lot of the bar on Hawkins Boulevard by Montana Avenue.

After the shooting, Saleel was arrested when a patrol officer stopped him in a vehicle a short distance from the bar, police spokesman Darrel Petry said. Saleel, 25, was jailed in lieu of a $100,000 bond.
