Manager Gale Scott of Down Home Delivery and Catering says the restaurant was busy preparing for lunch when the shooting happened.
"It is unnerving," Scott said. "We have been here a while and we haven't had anything happen here, that has unnerved us, or in and around the community, really, for the most part, we feel safe and at home here."
