A Kansas City, Mo., man was sentenced to 84 months in federal prison without parole for his involvement in an armed assault against a member of a rival motorcycle club.
Bryan S. Fletcher, also known as ‘Fletch,’ 49, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Greg Kays for assault with a dangerous weapon in aid of racketeering and possession of a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence.
On Sept. 17, 2022, Fletcher and twelve other members of the Pagan’s and their support club, the Los Valerosos, chased and forced a lone rival gang member from the road in Blue Springs, Mo. Various members of the Pagan’s and Los Valerosos were armed with firearms and at least one axe handle.
Fletcher, who was an associate of the Los Valerosos at the time, and others confronted the victim on the side of the roadway. The victim was shot seven times, with wounds to his knee, thigh, forearm, biceps, buttocks, and back of his leg. Fletcher and several others fled the scene before law enforcement could arrive.
This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Bradley K. Kavanaugh and Robert Smith. It was investigated by the FBI, the Independence, Mo., Police Department, the Blue Springs, Mo., Police Department, Homeland Security Investigations, and the Kansas City, Mo., Police Department.
The case is part of Operation Take Back America, a nationwide initiative that marshals the full resources of the government to repel the invasion of illegal immigration, achieve the total elimination of cartels and transnational criminal organizations (TCOs), and protect our communities from the perpetrators of violent crime.
