LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Las Vegas police are investigating a deadly shooting inside a fast food restaurant parking overnight.

Police say three men got into an argument around 2 a.m. inside an In-N-Out Burger parking lot on Tropicana Avenue and Tee Pee Lane, near Fort Apache Road.

Two men were walking and the third was having dinner in the parking lot with a woman, police say.
