The Tennessee Waffle House where four people died in a shooting has re-opened and the company intends to donate its first month of sales to help victims of the deadly attack.
Pat Warner, director of external affairs for Waffle House, said everything that comes into the cash register at the Nashville location where the shooting occurred will be donated to the families of the four people killed and to two who remain hospitalized.
Warner said corporate staff met with the restaurant's cooks and waitresses Wednesday morning. They said they wanted to start working again, so the restaurant opened around 9 a.m.
Police say 29-year-old Travis Reinking killed four people and wounded four others with an assault-style rifle Sunday at the restaurant. Reinking is charged with four counts of criminal homicide and other offenses.
