Last Person Jailed in Waco Biker Shooting to Be Released

The last person jailed in connection with a deadly shootout among bikers and police outside a Waco, Texas, restaurant is poised to be released from jail.

The move comes more than five months after authorities rounded up 177 people from the crime scene. Nine people died and 20 were injured during the shooting, which authorities say arose from an apparent confrontation between the Bandidos and the Cossacks motorcycle clubs.

A Waco jail was processing 38-year-old Marcus Pilkington's release Friday. Like the others, he was initially held on $1 million bonds on charges of engaging in organized criminal activity.

His bond was reduced to $50,000.

No one has been charged with murder.
