A fight ensued on the street when the Jameson\u2019s manager asked several patrons to leave.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOut on the street, one of the patrons punched the manager, causing him to lose consciousness. When the officers arrived on scene, the manager was not breathing. Officers administered CPR until the Santa Monica Fire Department arrived and took over lifesaving measures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The victim was transported to a local hospital, where he ultimately succumbed to his injuries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"qualified qualified-5\">\u201cWhen they reached the sidewalk, there was an argument,\u201d Santa Monica police Lt. Erika Aklufi told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=bQTyISRhe60\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">KTLA<\/a>. \u201cA single punch was thrown. The victim likely hit his head on the way down to the ground, and it was those things that ended up leading to his death. This is one of those tragic examples of how when alcohol is involved in an incident, something that could be very minor ends up turning into a life-changing event that is affecting many lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Korpie is currently being held on $2 million bond.<\/p>\n<p>A preliminary hearing has been scheduled for July 17.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/2024\/06\/california-man-charged-murder-after-single-punch-kills\/\">California Man Charged with Murder After Single Punch Kills Bar Manager<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegatewaypundit.com\/\">The Gateway Pundit<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A California man has been charged with murder after killing a bar manager with a single punch.
