Incident took place at Dockers in Fox Lake
FOX LAKE, Ill. (WLS) -- The man accused of shooting his brother before turning the gun on himself outside a north suburban restaurant Tuesday afternoon has been identified.
Marciano Martinez, 63, of Fox Lake traveled to his brother's restaurant, of which they used to be co-owners, about 1 p.m., the Lake County Coroner's Office said Wednesday.
Martinez confronted his brother about an ongoing feud, and shot him, officials said.
The argument initially took place in the kitchen at Dockers Restaurant, which is located in the 0-100 block of West Grand Avenue in Fox Lake. The 56-year-old victim was able to get outside, but Martinez followed him and continued shooting, officials said.
The brother collapsed outside after being shot multiple times.
Martinez fatally shot himself, just outside the restaurant before first responders arrived, officials said.
