September 17, 2022, was a day that would change the life of a Missouri biker forever. Bryan Fletcher, a 49-year-old associate of the Los Valerosos support club, and 12 other members of the Pagan’s motorcycle gang, chased down a lone rival gang member in Blue Springs, Missouri.
That rival, left with gunshot wounds to his knee, thigh, forearm, biceps, buttocks, and back of his leg, was lucky to have escaped with his life. Fletcher and the others were armed with firearms and an axe handle, a brutal reminder of the gang’s deadly intentions.
The victim, forced from the road, was confronted by Fletcher and his cohorts on the side of the highway. But before law enforcement could arrive, the attackers fled the scene, leaving the victim to survive the brutal assault.
Fast forward to yesterday, when Fletcher was sentenced to 84 months in federal prison without parole for his role in the armed assault. Fletcher, also known as ‘Fletch,’ was found guilty of assault with a dangerous weapon in aid of racketeering and possession of a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence.
