ORLANDO, Fla. —
The restaurant in Orlando hit by a quadruple shooting over the weekend reopened its doors Wednesday morning for the first time.
Four juveniles were injured in the shooting at Sister Soul Food in Parramore.
A group of pastors held a vigil before the restaurant opened its doors.
The owner came out, put out the restaurant’s sign and turned on the “open” light in the window.
Normally, the restaurant is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, but instead of taking this Tuesday off, the staff and owners had to replace the glass in the windows through which the bullets went through.
The restaurant was filled with customers following its reopening. The community came together to show support to the youth and to eat a meal.
According to the Orlando Police Department, the shooting was a result of a dispute between groups of juveniles.
It’s unclear what the argument was about, but it did leave one of the four victims with life-threatening injuries.
“We’re praying for this community, everybody involved, and praying that this business continues to be a staple in this community,” one person said during the vigil.
Orlando police were also present, with the community saying the officers were critical to making sure the children felt safe.
There is no information at this time on whether a suspect has been identified, nor has a suspect description been released.
WESH 2 has requested surveillance video from the scene, but has not yet received it.
