Four individuals sustained injuries following a shooting incident late Saturday night outside The Grill By Miss G, a Filipino restaurant located in Hayward, California. The Hayward Police Department reported that the incident took place at approximately 10:50 p.m. on March 1, in the restaurant’s parking area. Upon arrival, officers discovered three individuals with gunshot wounds, while a fourth victim sought medical assistance independently.
No suspects have been detained in connection with the shooting, and authorities have not released a suspect description. The news was initially reported by KRON4. The Grill By Miss G, known for its Filipino cuisine, live music, and karaoke nights, addressed the situation through an Instagram statement, labeling the event as an “isolated incident.”

The statement conveyed thoughts and support for those affected and confirmed the restaurant’s cooperation with law enforcement.
