Multiple people were killed and others injured after a gunman opened fire on August 2, 2026, at an In-N-Out Burger restaurant in Twin Falls, Idaho, a city in the northwestern United States.

The shooting occurred near a busy shopping area where hundreds of people were present, according to Twin Falls Police Chief Matthew Hicks. Authorities confirmed the incident "resulted in fatalities," though they were still working to determine the exact number of victims. Local public radio station KTVB reported three people were killed and two injured, while a city spokesperson indicated the number of victims could be higher.

Police found the body of the suspected gunman in an area near the restaurant. The shooter's identity and motive remain under investigation. Hicks described the scene as "very chaotic" and said officials expect to clarify details in the coming days.

Hospital spokesperson Taylor Marschner stated that medical staff were "working closely with law enforcement and emergency responders as they manage the situation."

The In-N-Out Burger location in Twin Falls had only been open for about a week. Twin Falls is a city of approximately 56,000 residents, located about 130 miles southeast of Boise and 75 miles north of the Nevada border.
