Three people were killed and at least two others injured in a shooting that occurred near an In-N-Out Burger restaurant in Twin Falls, Idaho on Saturday. The gunman who opened fire was also among the dead, according to Twin Falls Police Chief Matthew Hicks. Police are still working to identify the shooter and determine the motive behind the attack.
The shooting took place at around 2.30 pm local time in a busy shopping area. Eyewitness Lane Koehn reported seeing the gunman emerge from the drive-thru of the restaurant, brandishing an AR-style rifle. Another man armed with a pistol then began firing at the suspect. Police evacuated the area as the shooting was still active and urged anyone with information to come forward.
Twin Falls County Commissioner Brent Reinke said Sheriff Jack Johnson initially reported five people were hurt, but officials later clarified the number of victims. The shooting unfolded in a high-traffic commercial district, with about an hour passing between the initial reports and authorities declaring the shooter no longer a threat.
