Six other people were hospitalized, five of them with gunshot wounds, after the incident at the Cook's Corner bar in Trabuco Canyon, the Orange County Sheriff said in a post on X.
The county's fire department said two people were in critical condition, according to a news briefing.
CBS Los Angeles, which first reported the shooting, initially said five people were killed. Citing KCAL News, CBS said the incident started as a domestic dispute between a retired law enforcement officer and his wife.
The Sheriff's office did not provide additional details about the incident to Reuters, but said they were investigating the possibility of the gunman being a retired officer.
