CHICAGO (CBS) — An employee shot and killed two people in a South Side restaurant on Monday night. 

Around 10:30 p.m., police said two men were arguing with an employee inside JJ Fish and Chicken, in the 7800 block of South Western Avenue, when the employee pulled out a gun and fired shots. 

The 55-year-old man was shot in the face and the 56-year-old man was shot in the head. Both men were pronounced dead on the scene. 

Police are searching for the shooter.
