Police indicted two African-American men arrested in an armed robbery Friday at a Korean restaurant in Texas that left three people dead. The two, both 21 years old, are part of a group of four suspects who opened fire in the Korean restaurant "Samwon Garden" in San Antonio, Texas, early Friday morning. Two Korean people, including Kim Hak-bo, the son of the restaurant's owner, were shot dead at the scene and a Chinese-American female employee died at a hospital a day later of massive head wounds suffered in the shooting. After the shooting, the robbers took Kim Hak-bo's wife of two months hostage as they fled in a car. She was found safe when police arrested the two suspects at an apartment three hours later on a tip from a neighbor. Police were searching for two more suspects currently at large. The restaurant is owned by a Korean-American who bought it two years ago and is the largest Korean restaurant in San Antonio.
