Another Southern Cal Denny`s Shooting

Police in say a gunman opened fire early Friday at a Denny`s restaurant, killing one man and seriously wounding another in the third fatal shooting at the budget restaurant chain in Southern California this week.

Sgt. Rick Martinez of the Anaheim Police Department says the 2:45 a.m. shooting happened after a fight between two large groups inside the restaurant.

Martinez says one shooting victim re-entered the restaurant after being shot and died inside. The other victim was taken to a hospital and is expected to survive. Martinez says the gunman is being sought by authorities. Martinez said the shooting did not appear to be gang-related.
