The Twin Falls In-N-Out shooting victims have been publicly identified, days after a Saturday attack that left three people dead and multiple others injured in the southern Idaho city.
Twin Falls Police and county officials released the names Tuesday, following completion of identification procedures by the Twin Falls County Coroner’s Office and formal notification of next of kin. That sequence, though it can feel slow to a community waiting for answers, exists so families learn of a death from an official rather than from a news broadcast or social media post.
Those Who Were Killed
The three people who died have been identified as:
Ashley Garibay, 23, of Stockton, California
Dale Schultz, 66, of Salt Lake City, Utah
Christopher Claunch, 59, of Hagerman, Idaho
The geographic spread reflects the nature of the location. Restaurants along travel corridors draw both local residents and people passing through, which means an incident there reaches well beyond a single community.
Police have asked the public to respect the privacy of the victims’ families as they grieve and begin what will be a long recovery.
Ten Families Affected
Police Chief Matthew Hicks framed the department’s immediate priorities around the people most directly harmed.
He said the primary concern is delivering support, resources, and timely information to the ten immediate families affected by the incident. Those families, he noted, are absorbing either an unimaginable loss or the injury of someone they love, and he emphasized that they deserve compassion, privacy, and every form of assistance his department and partner agencies can supply.
That figure of ten families indicates the incident produced injuries beyond the three deaths, though authorities have not detailed the conditions of those wounded.
A Family Assistance Center Is Open
Twin Falls Police, working with the FBI along with local, state, federal, and nongovernmental partners, established a Family Assistance Center to consolidate services in one location.
The center is operating at Sawtooth Elementary School, 1771 Stadium Blvd. Hours are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday.
Several types of assistance are available on site:
Retrieval of personal belongings left at the scene that have not yet been returned
American Red Cross services
Mental health support for those affected
Information about Crime Victims’ Compensation
Spiritual care for those who want it
Additional victim assistance services
Authorities are encouraging anyone touched by the incident to seek support, whether through the assistance center or through friends, family, faith leaders, counselors, and victim assistance professionals.
That last point matters. In the aftermath of an event like this, the circle of people affected extends well past those physically present. Employees, first responders, witnesses, and family members across multiple states are all carrying something from Saturday.
The FBI’s Role and Victim Form
The FBI has created an online victim information form connected to the Twin Falls incident.
The form serves two purposes. It allows people to request personal items left behind at the scene, and it connects individuals with FBI victim specialists who can provide ongoing assistance.
Investigators are specifically encouraging anyone who has not yet spoken with law enforcement to complete the form. In incidents with many people present, some witnesses leave before officers can identify them, and their accounts can prove significant to the investigation.
Why Family Assistance Centers Exist
For readers unfamiliar with the concept, these centers have become a standard response following mass casualty events, and their design reflects lessons learned from previous incidents.
The core idea is consolidation. Rather than requiring grieving families to navigate separate agencies for death certificates, property recovery, counseling referrals, and financial assistance, everything is placed under one roof for a defined period.
They also serve a protective function. Families receive a controlled environment away from cameras and public attention, which is difficult to find in the days immediately following a widely covered incident.
The temporary nature is intentional as well. The centers handle the acute phase, then transition families to longer-term services such as victim compensation programs and community mental health providers.
What Remains Unanswered
Authorities have not publicly released details about the circumstances of the shooting, any suspect information, or a possible motive in the material made available with the victim identifications.
Investigations of this scale typically take considerable time. Evidence processing, witness interviews, digital records, and forensic analysis all proceed on their own timelines, and agencies generally withhold specifics while active work continues.
For the community, that gap between what happened and what is known can be its own source of strain.
Looking Ahead
Twin Falls is a city of roughly fifty thousand people, and events of this magnitude reverberate through places that size in ways they might not in a major metropolitan area. Many residents will know someone connected to the incident, directly or through a few degrees of separation.
The immediate work involves supporting the families, completing the investigation, and helping those who were present begin to process what they experienced.
Anyone in the Twin Falls area struggling in the aftermath is encouraged to use the resources being made available. Reaching out early, rather than waiting to see whether difficult feelings pass on their own, tends to make recovery more manageable.
