SPANAWAY -- Two men have been arrested in the fatal stabbing of a man outside a bar in Spanaway, southeast of Tacoma.

A motorcycle gang is being blamed for the death of the 39-year-old Spanaway man late Saturday night in the parking lot of The Bullseye Sports Lounge.

Pierce County sheriff's Detective Ed Troyer said the man reportedly argued with a group at the bar and was jumped by several men in the parking lot. He was pronounced dead at St. Joseph Medical Center in Tacoma.

Troyer said the killers apparently fled on three motorcycles and in a 1980s gold sedan. Two men were arrested Sunday, and an online jail roster shows that Barry Ford and Mike Robert McCreven were booked Sunday night for investigation of first-degree murder.
