Delaware police identify 2 men killed after shooting inside restaurant

Delaware police say two men were fatally shot inside a restaurant during an altercation with two masked people who had entered the establishment. 

State police say it happened early Saturday evening at the El Nopalito Restaurant in Georgetown. 

A 28-year-old man was declared dead at the scene, while the 31-year-old was pronounced dead at a local hospital. 

They were later identified as Armanda Vincente Chilel Lopez of Georgetown and Honorio Velasquez of Bridgeville. 

 Police say the two suspects had been part of a group that had been asked to leave the restaurant earlier due to disorderly behavior. 

Authorities say the suspects returned later. 

Homicide detectives are currently seeking information on a gray pickup truck with an extended cab that fled the area after the shooting. 

The vehicle may have been involved in the incident.
