Three killed, 5 wounded in shooting at Glendale, Arizona restaurant

Three people were killed and several others injured after a shooting at a restaurant in Glendale, Arizona. The incident occurred around 7:45 p.m. on Sunday, May 4 at El Camarón Gigante Mariscos & Steakhouse in Glendale. Citing information from the Glendale Police Department, ABC News stated that at least nine people were hurt during the incident.

More than one shooter may have been involved in the attack; but as of press time, no suspects have been taken into custody. An eyewitness who spoke to Phoenix-based NBC affiliate KPNX said the restaurant had been hosting a Cinco de Mayo celebration at the time of the shooting. The event was described as family-oriented, with attendees of all ages present when the gunfire erupted. The witness said he had just exited the venue when he heard more than 20 gunshots fired in rapid succession, followed by another volley of roughly 10 shots after a brief pause. His vehicle was struck by stray bullets during the incident.

Officer Moroni Mendez, speaking to Fox 10, said that "we can confirm that several people were shot. The number of victims is approaching nine. I can’t verify that exact figure, but it’s definitely more than three at this time.” Despite reports of multiple assailants, Officer Mendez emphasized that there was no ongoing threat to the community: “at this point, no arrests have been made. We do have a number of individuals detained, and we’re working to determine whether they’re suspects, victims, witnesses, or possibly connected in another way." Mendez also noted that a conflict between “two rival groups” is one potential angle being explored: "we’re trying to piece together whether these individuals were acquaintances, relatives, allies, or adversaries."

The Consulate of Mexico in Phoenix posted to social media early Monday that "Derived from the events that happened tonight in 'El Camarón Gigante,' in the city of Glendale," any Mexican people who require "consular assistance or protection" in connection to the incident can contact their office.
