Officers responded to a report of a shooting at Pa's Mexican and Filipino Cuisine restaurant located at 916 B St. at about 1:15 a.m., San Rafael police Lt. Dan Fink said.
When officers arrived, they found a 31-year-old man who had been shot multiple times, Fink said.

It is unknown if the suspect and victim know each other.
There were about 20 other people in the restaurant at the time of the shooting but no other injuries were reported, according to Fink.
Police said "an intensive investigation" into the shooting is underway.
