Arrest made in Pasco County strip club shooting

PASCO COUNTY (Bay News 9) --Bryan G. Heater, 28, has been charged with three counts of attempted murder stemming from a Feb. 24 fight at Diamonds Gentleman's Club that turned violent.

Authorities said Heater fired a gun at three people in the parking lot, injuring two. One of the victims, 27-year-old Kellie Zorka of Holiday, had a severe brain injury. She died early Sunday after being removed from a respirator at Bayfront Medical Center in St. Petersburg.

Anthony Monti, 32, of New Port Richey, was shot in the left arm and treated at a local hospital. Alexander Wilson, a bouncer at the club, was fired at but not hit.

Heater is being held without bail in the Pasco County Jail in Land O'Lakes.
