A woman who was at Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kandi Burruss’ restaurant when a gunman opened fire is describing the terrifying incident.
Three people were shot when a gunman stormed inside Old Lady Gang restaurant in East Point, Georgia, just after 9pm on Valentine’s Day.
Customer Kima Golden exclusively told The Sun that she had mistaken the gunshots for “balloons.”
She said: “It wasn’t until I saw the people around the target hit the ground that I followed suit.
“I also thought the shooting was outside and not inside. Who shoots someone inside of a restaurant?”
Kima said she’s been to restaurants in the area before and always “felt safe.”
She continued: “I would hate for fear to ruin the reputation of the restaurant and others in the area due to one individual’s selfish acts.”
Police told WSB-TV 2 that the shooter targeted a man inside the eatery.
Two bystanders were shot.
All three individuals were taken to a hospital in the area with non-life threatening injuries, according to Fox 5 Atlanta.
A hunt is underway for the gunman, who fled the scene following the shooting.
The names of the victims have not been released.
The RHOA star has not responded to the shooting.
Just moments before, Kandi, 43, wished her husband a Happy Valentine’s Day.
She captioned a photo: “Happy Valentine’s to the love of my life! I love you babe!”
Kandi and her husband, Todd Tucker, founded the southern-style restaurant in 2016.
They own two other eateries.
The East Police Department did not respond to The Sun’s request for comment.
