On what was supposed to be the happiest day of his life, a groom in Chino was beaten to death with a baseball bat just hours after saying “I do,” investigators say.

Joe Melgoza, 30, died Sunday morning, the day after his wedding.

Melgoza was celebrating with his new bride at a backyard wedding reception at a home in Chino during the late hours of Saturday evening when authorities said two brothers crashed the party uninvited.

Chino Police officers responded to the 13300 block of Oaks Avenue around 2:20 a.m. Sunday morning after a fight broke out during the celebration.

Witnesses reported that the party crashers were asked to leave, but returned armed with baseball bats prompting the altercation.

According to his family members, Melgoza was trying to protect his family from the men when he was brutally beaten.

When officers arrived, partygoers told them a victim involved in the fight was missing, after searching the area, they found Melgoza in the rear yard of a residence a few blocks away suffering from blunt force trauma to his head.

Drugs and alcohol would be my first guess. Gang retaliation comes in next.

Take note of the part crasher’s names.

Go to Wacky fun women Mexicans at it again

Not to sound callous or anything but dude was still partying at 2:00 am instead of enjoying his new bride??? Sheeeyit. I think my wife’s garter belt was still flying through the air when we bugged out. Forget all that first dances and toasts and cutting the cake crapola. There was only one festivity that was on my mind and I couldn’t get to it quick enough.

Indians with Hispanic names...

[DesertRhino]

Voice to text sucks. I meant to say it’s those wacky fun-loving Mexicans again.

[goldstategop]

Gang-related. Or the brothers didn’t want him marrying that woman.

Got a wife in Chino, babe
And one in Cherokee
First one says she’s got my child
But it don’t look like me

[MrEdd]

Jealousy over the bride would be my first guess.

[Mr. Blond]

It’s not a great American tradition?

[null and void]

They did use baseball bats, not macuahuitl after all...

[SpaceBar]

Who are we to judge? ®

[Trump Girl Kit Cat]

GANG members would be my guess!!{

[cdcdawg]

Sure, that’s bad, but think of the great food! We need more diversity! I mean, the food!

How did he get a few blocks away?
