Escobar Training Grounds, where Chris Cocores honed his mixed martial arts skills, is having a fundraiser Jan. 13 for the former South Lake Tahoe resident.

Cocores broke his back, arm and has internal injuries after being in a vehicle accident last month that killed his girlfriend and dog.

Proceeds/donations from mixed martial arts and self-defense classes next Saturday will go toward Cocores’ medical care. MMA guru Gilbert Melendez will be joined by friends from 11am-1pm at Escobar.
