Police probe source of 98 rounds used in school shooting

Nonthaburi Police are probing the origin of 98 rounds of live ammunition used in a recent school shooting. Deputy Commander Pol. Col. Chokchai Khanajaroen announced that over 20 witnesses, including around six or seven students and many teachers, have been questioned so far. The teacher linked to the case has yet to provide a statement.

Police are investigating whether the student had prior firearms training or practice, or if this was their first time using a real firearm. The 98 rounds used were live, not training ammunition. Out of the total, 34 rounds remained in the student's bag, indicating the rest had been fired. Police visited a shooting range in Bang Bua Thong area, but found no record of the student using the range.

The student's parents were questioned on August 7 and may face further questioning if more issues arise.
