Police shot and killed a man who stormed into a central Ohio restaurant wielding a machete.

Four people were injured in the brutal attack
Thursday evening at Nazareth Restaurant and Deli, a
Mediterranean restaurant in Columbus. The victims
were taken to an area hospital and were expected to
recover.
Police identified the suspected attacker as Mohamed
Barry, 30.
CBS News homeland security correspondent Jeff
Pegues reports that investigators were running down
leads to try to determine if the attack was somehow
tied to terrorist organizations.
"There was no rhyme or reason as to who he was
going after," said Columbus police Sgt. Rich Weiner.
Police said the man walked into the restaurant, had a
conversation with an employee and then left. He
returned about a half hour later. That's when police
said he approached a man and a woman who were
sitting just inside the door at a booth and started the
attack.
Pegues reports the suspected attacker has a Somali
background, and officials believe he may have
traveled to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates in
2012. Pegues reports that law enforcement is
concerned that this incident has the hallmarks of the
type of so-called "lone wolf" terrorist attack that they
have been working to stop.
Police said employees and patrons tried to get the
man to stop.
"Some of the patrons there started throwing chairs at
him just trying to get him out of there," Weiner said.
The man eventually fled the scene in a white car and
led police on a short chase. Officers forced the man
off the road a few miles away and when he got out of
his car police said they tried unsuccessfully to use a
stun gun on him.
Weiner said, "At that point he had a machete and
another knife in his hand and he lunged across the
hood at the officers."
That's when police said an officer shot and killed the
man.
It remained unclear what sparked the attacks.
"Right now there's nothing that leads us to believe
that this is anything but a random attack," said
Weiner.
Police said four people were treated at Grant Medical
Center. William Foley, 54, was in critical but stable
condition. Gerald Russell and Debbie Russell, both
43, were in stable condition. Neil McMeekin, 43, was
treated and released.
Karen Bass, who told CBS affiliate WBNS-10TV that
she had only been in the restaurant for about half an
hour when the attack occurred, described a scene of
chaos.
"He came to each table and just started hitting them,"
she told WBNS. "There were tables and chairs
overturned, there was a man on the floor bleeding,
there was blood on the floor."
"I fell like five times. My legs felt like jelly. I just
thought he was going to come behind me and slash
me up," she said, describing her frantic escape.
