Restaurant benefit planned to help family of slain Valinda man

| | Comments (0) |

INDUSTRY -- The Puente Hills Chili's restaurant is holding a benefit today to raise money for the family of a man who was shot to death last week during a confrontation near his home.
Father of four David Sua, 37, of Valinda died at the scene of the shooting Thursday after he confronted a man who threw a beer can at his family's car as he, his wife and his daughter were on their way to dinner, officials said.
The gunman, later identified as Jorge Zavala, 34, of West Covina, then fatally shot himself.
The benefit will be held at the restaurant, 17588 Castleton Street, from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Wednesday, family members of Sua said.
Fifteen percent of customers' total bill, excluding alcohol, will be donated to the Sua family when the customer presents a flyer.
The flyers will be available at Big O Tires in West Covina, 444 S. Vincent Ave., as well as at the restaurant on the day of the event.
