HIALEAH, Fla. - A gunman shot and killed four women at a South Florida restaurant and wounded three others before killing himself, police said Monday. Sunday night's rampage began in a parking lot outside the Yoyito Restaurant in Hialeah, where the man was seen arguing with a woman, Detective Eddie Rodriguez said. "It was some sort of domestic dispute," he said. The man shot the woman, then walked into the restaurant north of Miami and started randomly firing at the people inside, Rodriguez said. He later got into a vehicle and drove away. Police identified the shooter as 38-year-old Gerardo Regalado of Coral Gables. Eduardo Rodriguez, who works in the family-run restaurant, told the Miami Herald the shooter entered the building "like a wild man, with a gun in hand, and began shooting indiscriminately." 'Please call 911' Another employee called her brother after the shooting, saying she had been shot and was bleeding."Please call 911," Felix Fuentes said his sister, Ivette Coronado, told him. He said the 32-year-old woman was recovering Monday after undergoing surgery for gunshot wounds to her chest and one of her arms.

Police found the gunman a short time later in the vehicle parked a few blocks from the restaurant. He had taken his own life, police said.
Three people were hospitalized in critical condition, police said. The other four victims were pronounced dead at the scene. Police identified one of the deceased as Liazan Morales, 24, who shared an address with Regalado, but their relationship was unclear.
The Miami Herald identified the other victims as Maysel Figueroa, 32, of Hialeah; Lavina M. Fonseca, 47, of Hialeah; and Zaida Castillo, 56, of Hialeah.
