On Saturday April 24, 2021 a bartender at Champagne's in Las Vegas, Nevada died after an assault at the bar. According to Fox5, bartender Mark Heilman refused to serve an intoxicated customer, who then jumped behind the bar and assaulted him. Mark ended up having a heart attack and later died at the hospital.
A customer helped stop the assault, but Mark had a heart condition and his heart couldn't take the struggle.
Champagne's appeared on Bar Rescue during season 5 in 2016 (update here) and will also be featured in the upcoming season that is filmed entirely in Las Vegas. Mark was not on the first episode in season 5, but it remains to be seen if he will be involved in the upcoming episode.
Owner Greg Sims has set up a GoFundMe to help cover Mark's funeral expenses and other financial needs.
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department has not made any arrests yet and everything is pending a coroner's investigation into the cause of death.
