"Police said the owner, a 48-year-old man, was drinking alcohol inside the restaurant with a 37-year-old man. The two began arguing over a bill, which turned into a physical fight that continued outside, police said. The owner then went back inside the restaurant to retrieve a gun that he pointed at the 37-year-old and fired, police said. The 37-year-old was not hit by gunfire and only had minor injuries from the physical fight."
"A witness reported hearing the shot and glass shattering. Investigators determined that the gunshot hit a woman's car parked outside, breaking its rear window. It's unclear when the physical fight and gunshot occurred, but officers responded to a report of a possible shooting just after 4 a.m., police said. When the officers arrived, the 37-year-old was still on the scene and the owner, who was found in the restaurant, was arrested."
"Authorities also conducted a search warrant of the restaurant, where they found a .357 revolver and live ammunition in the kitchen. The restaurant did not respond to SFGATE's request for comment. The owner was booked into the Sonoma County Main Adult Detention Facility without bail, according to jail records, on suspicion of several felonies, including assault with a firearm and shooting at an occupied vehicle."
