SANTA MONICA, Calif. (KABC) -- Two brothers and one other man were arrested this week in connection with a deadly stabbing at a popular Santa Monica bar.

The incident happened last Saturday just before 2 a.m. at The Bungalow on 101 Wilshire Blvd.

When officers arrived, they found two men with stab wounds. Gonzalez died at the scene and a second victim suffered non-life-threatening injuries. It's unclear what led to the stabbing but police said it wasn't "a random act of violence."

Police said all suspects have extensive criminal histories.

Arenas and Quintero were booked on suspicion of murder, while Quintero Jr. was booked on suspicion of being an accessory, and all were being held without bail.

Anyone with information is urged to contact the Santa Monica Police Department.
