A man wearing just a coat shot and killed four people while wounding at last three others at a Waffle House in a suburb of Nashville, Tennessee.
A customer wrestled away the shooter’s rifle and the white gunman fled from the restaurant naked, police said.
The gunman was initially wearing a green jacket, police told ABC News.
Initially police said the gunman killed three people, but a fourth later died in hospital.
Police later announced they were seeking to speak to Travis Reinking, of Morton, Ill., a person of interest in connection to the shooting.
He was later spotted wearing a pair of black pants.
Pat Warner, director of public relations and external affairs for Waffle House, told ABC News it is a “very troubling” situation.
“We are sending our corporate team from Atlanta and heading to Nashville now,” Warner said. “Our thoughts are with those affected.”
The shooting occurred at a restaurant in Antioch, which is a suburb of Nashville.
In September 2017, a church in Antioch was also the scene of a shooting, where a woman was killed and eight worshippers were injured after a gunman opened fire.
