A shooting at a newly opened In-N-Out Burger restaurant in Twin Falls, Idaho, left three people dead and seven injured, some critically, on Saturday afternoon. The attack took place around 2pm in a busy shopping plaza roughly 130 miles south-east of Boise, sending crowds fleeing in panic from what witnesses described as a chaotic scene. Police believe the threat to the community has passed after finding the suspected gunman's body near the restaurant, though his identity and motive have not been confirmed.

City spokesman Josh Palmer said officials were still notifying victims' families and had not released their names, while Police Chief Matthew Hicks confirmed the immediate danger appeared to be over. Witnesses reported seeing at least one bystander with an AR-style rifle and another with a pistol confronting the gunman during the incident. Further details on the victims and the shooter's identity had not been released at the time of the last update.
