The stabbing allegedly occurred following a dispute involving Riehm and his wife on one hand and the victim and his girlfriend on the other that escalated from flirtatious joking to a lung deflated by a puncture wound.
Authorities say it began when Heather Griego, identified in the criminal complaint as Riehm's wife, complimented the appearance of the victim's girlfriend at a hotel bar (the criminal complaint doesn't specify whether the mayhem went down in the Living Room or Prohibition). In response, the victim told Griego "his girlfriend was already taken."
"This comment upset Griego and her husband," the complaint says. "The victim reported a shoving match ensued between himself and [Riehm] but the altercation was broken up by bar security."
That was far from the end of the confrontation, however.
"The victim reported that some time later Griego approached him and attempted to kick him in the groin," the complaint continues. "The victim and Griego got into a physical altercation and defendant attempted to intervene on behalf of his wife."
Though that melee was also broken up by security, as the victim prepared exited the bar and entered the hotel lobby, Riehm allegedly approached him and "thrust at his rib cage."
