Palos Hills Marine Daniel Martinez was allegedly stabbed to death outside Sons of Boston pub by bouncer Alvaro Larrama.
His body arrived at Chicago's O'Hare airport around 2 p.m., according to family, and was then taken to the family's funeral home on West 63rd Street.
Martinez's family said he was in Boston with one of his Marine brothers. He served four years with the U.S. Marine Corps and just completed his service in September after achieving the rank of sergeant. Prosecutors said surveillance video shows Martinez trying to enter the Sons of Boston pub near the city's famous Faneuil Hall with a friend March 19. When he was denied entrance by the bouncer, they exchanged words and then Martinez walked away, prosecutors said.
Prosecutors said the bouncer then chased after Martinez and attacked him. He was taken to a hospital where he died from a stab wound to the chest.More News Videos "The city alleges that after the stabbing the bar did nothing to call for help for Daniel or to catch the person who had stabbed him. It has been reported that the assailant was allowed to re-enter the bar, clean blood off of himself and escape through the back door. These shocking allegations warrant, actually demand further investigation," Flaws added.A private funeral service will be held on Saturday.
