A witness said an argument had ensued, escalating to a fight that culminated in dishes dropping on the ground, and tables and chairs falling. Some patrons reportedly hid under tables; others were able to run and escape the restaurant. A woman, reportedly a relatively of the man, fired a fatal shot at the man.
