A 24-year-old Renton man was shot to death early Sunday morning outside a restaurant at the Foster Golf Links in Tukwila.

The King County medical examiner identified the victim as DeVon Tremaine Guidry. He died of multiple gunshot wounds to the head and chest at Harborview Medical Center.

The medical examiner ruled his death a homicide.

A large crowd had gathered at the restaurant on Interurban Avenue South for a party for the authors of a book about rapper Dr. Dre.

Police were called in from neighboring cities, including Renton, to help control the crowd.

According to published reports, a second man, from Skyway, also was critically wounded. His name and condition weren’t released.
