A fight inside the club ended in the parking lot with 24-year-old mother Rosario Garza and other people being run over.

Garza was hospitalized leaving her family with costly medical bills.

Officers arrested Menchaca while he was attending a funeral a Restlawn Cemetery late Thursday morning.

The Harlingen man is expected to be arraigned on Friday morning.
