Who was Ashley Garibay? In-N-Out Burger employee killed in Twin Falls mass shooting identified
23-year-old Ashley Garibay, an In-N-Out employee from California, was identified by family as one of three victims killed in the Twin Falls mass shooting.
Ashley Garibay, a 23-year-old from Stockton, California, was identified as the In-N-Out Burger employee killed in the Saturday, August 1 mass shooting at the outlet's Twin Falls, Idaho branch.
Ashley Garibay was identified by his friends and family on social media on Monday, New York Post reported. As of now, authorities have not released the names of the three victims killed in the mass shooting.
The identification of Ashley Garibay comes a day after the shooter, 24-year-old Chad Williams, was identified by Twin Falls Police Department Chief Matthew Hicks. Hicks confirmed that Williams "acted alone" and died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Who Was Ashley Garibay?
The news of Ashley Garibay's death in the shooting was first confirmed by In-N-Out Burger President Lynsi Snyder. “We lost one of our beautiful Associates tonight. "She was taking care of our most important asset — our customers, and her life was taken by a disgusting human who doesn’t value the lives of others or his own,” she said referring to her death in a statement after the shooting. The statement, however, did not identify Ashley Garibay as the victim.
According to the New York Post, on Monday, Ashley Garibay's mother, Sabrina Garibay, changed her profile picture. The new picture is with her slain daughter. As of now, the family has not released a statement.

Notably, another In-N-Out employee, a driver at the newly opened Twin Falls outlet, sustained injuries in the shooting Saturday. Identified as Terry Dudley, KBOI reported, citing his friends, that he was shot twice in the back and his condition is critical. A GoFundMe has also been launched to raise money for Dudley's treatment.
The Twin Falls Police Department said in an update late on Sunday night that two of the seven injured are in critical condition. Tyler is believed to be among them.
Additionally, three sustained serious injuries but are in stable condition and other two have been treated and released.
