This Good Morning America segment covers the aftermath of a deadly shooting outside an In-N-Out restaurant in Idaho and features an interview with Jordan Selenus, a 35-year-old bystander who confronted the gunman.
Initial Chaos and Arrival: Jordan and his girlfriend Emily arrived in the parking lot
just as the shooting began [00:19]. Initially believing there might be a kitchen fire due to a crowd of people flooding out of the building, they quickly realized the gravity of the situation as hundreds fled for their lives [00:27].
The Confrontation: Drawing a semi-automatic pistol, Jordan moved t
oward the danger, taking cover behind the In-N-Out sign, and repeatedly fired at the shooter [00:43]. He noted that the suspect seemed comfortable aiming his rifle at cars until bullets began coming back at him, changing the dynamic completely [01:02].
Law Enforcement Response and Outcome: Authoriti
es confirmed that an off-duty state trooper also targeted the suspect. Their combined actions bought crucial time for people to escape [01:14]. The shooter, identified as 24-year-old Chad Williams, died at the scene from a self-inflicted gunshot wound [01:21]. Investigators stated that these heroic
actions helped drive the suspect away and prevented further casualties [01:27].
Casualties and Community Impact: The tragedy left seven people injured and three dead [01:33], including Christopher Cla—a 30-year resident of Idaho known for loving travel and the outdoors—and 23-year-old restaurant wor
ker Ashley Garibby, described by her family as adventurous and smart [01:40].
Jordan's Perspective: Reflecting on the event, Jordan stated that his primary goal was simply to help as many people get home safely to their families and friends [02:07]. He also emphasized that while he and the state tro
oper intervened with weapons, dozens of others sprung into action to provide first aid and guide people to safety, alongside the efforts of first responders [02:24].
