By Renee Schiavone and Bay City News Service:

 Police have arrested three men suspected in the months-old shooting of a nightclub bouncer in Campbell, according to local police.

 Officers responded to reports of a shooting in the parking lot of The Spot nightclub at 201 Orchard City Drive shortly before 2 a.m. on Oct. 26, Campbell police said.

 A 33-year-old male bouncer who suffered a single gunshot wound was transported and since then has recovered from his injuries, according to police.

 Before the shooting security personnel from the nightclub had asked a group of people in the parking lot to lower the volume of their music, police said.

 Campbell police posted a 52-second video of surveillance footage on its YouTube page of the suspects inside the nightclub that received over 11,000 views days after the shooting, police said.

 Gilroy resident John Ybarra, 22, and Morgan Hill residents Jose Torres, 23, and Rajpreet Kahlon, 21, were arrested during a search warrant served on Thursday.

 Officers from the Gilroy and Morgan Hill police departments also assisted.

Ybarra and Kahlon were arrested on attempted homicide warrants and booked into Santa Clara County jail without bail.

 Torres was already in custody at Elmwood Correctional Facility on other charges, police said. An investigation is ongoing and anyone with information on the shooting is asked to call Campbell police at (408) 871-5190.
