New Facts: Police identify Chad Williams as sole gunman
On Saturday afternoon, Aug. 1, 2026, a gunman opened fire at an In-N-Out Burger in Twin Falls, Idaho, killing three people and wounding seven. The shooter was identified as Chad Williams, 24.
He acted alone and was found dead near the restaurant from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Early counts varied on injuries, with initial tallies listing five wounded before the number was confirmed at seven.
A large law enforcement response secured the area, and investigators plan to interview hundreds of potential witnesses. Police have not released a motive and continue to investigate.
