 At least nine men have been arrested in connection with the beating death of a 22-year-old American tourist outside a bar on the Greek island of Zakynthos last week. But police there are on the hunt for more suspects.

Bakari Henderson, of Austin, Texas, was at a bar with friends in the island's village of Laganas, popular among tourists and known for its nightlife, when a fight broke out with another group of people in the early morning hours of July 7.

Bakari Henderson "was a good boy, why did those white racists kill him?"

First punch was a slap across the face by a Serb; BH responded by cracking a bottle across the Serb's head.

Basically, it was a drunken brawl, the best kind.
