Three people were killed and seven more were injured, some critically, in a shooting at an In-N-Out Burger restaurant in southern Idaho on Saturday afternoon, a Twin Falls city spokesperson said.

Police who responded to the shooting found the body of the suspected gunman in an area near the restaurant, Twin Falls city public information officer Josh Palmer said. He did not know if the suspect was included in the fatality count.

Officials were contacting family members of victims and so were not yet releasing the names, ages or other details about the people hurt in the shooting, Palmer said on Saturday night.

Earlier on Saturday, the Twin Falls police chief, Matthew Hicks, said police were working on determining the shooter’s identity and motive, and interviewing witnesses.

“We believe the threat to the community is over,” Hicks said. “It was a very chaotic scene.”

The restaurant is newly opened in a busy shopping plaza and hundreds of people were in the area when the shooting started around 2pm.

Nayeli Rodriguez, 40, of Burley, was inside waiting for food with her daughters when she heard shots from the kitchen. An employee said it was a shooting and told people to get down. Rodriguez said an older man tried to protect her and her daughters, and they were among the last to run outside.
