Chick-fil-A confirmed that two employees were killed in a shooting at a restaurant location in Irving, Texas on Wednesday. An illegal immigrant suspect is in custody, police said.

The owner of a Texas Chick-fil-A confirmed that two employees were killed Wednesday in a shooting incident in Irving. "Our hearts are broken by the tragedy that unfolded inside our restaurant Wednesday. We will miss our two Team Members dearly," the owner-operator of Chick-fil-A Las Colinas said in a statement. "Right now, our focus is on providing care for our Team and the victims’ families. I want to thank the Irving Police Department for their professionalism and compassion.

An ICE spokesperson confirmed to Fox News Digital that the agency's Enforcement and Removal Operations in Dallas "lodged an immigration detainer with the Irving Police Department on Mendoza." Such detainers are for noncitizens accused of a crime and who have been apprehended by police. The shooting happened around 3:40 p.m., according to an arrest warrant that identified one of the victims as Patricia Portillo.
