Berkeley officers were first to arrive at the scene and evacuated the area, entering the business and searching for the shooter.
When they found him on the second floor, there was an exchange of gunfire between the officers and the suspect. Both the victim and suspect died at the scene. Their names have not been released.
"Investigators have determined that the incident was an act of domestic violence," Modeste said in a news release late Thursday.
Albany police are investigating the homicide and the Alameda County Sheriff's Office is handling the officer-involved shooting investigation.
