the bullets were not engraved, though potentially marked w/ permanent marker or something - engraving takes a lot of work, and I doubt someone skilled w/ a firearm would bother
the primary suspect is the right person - they arrested/detained two others, and quickly let them go
they have some biometrics - I watched a report where they recovered palm, forarm, and shoe prints, no fingerprints as of yet
I’m guessing the perp isn’t a student there, otherwise they would’ve been able to get a name from school records.
I guess we’ll see how close I am, but in the meantime, I hope these sources are of interest to others.
Guesswork on the caliber based on ‘sound’ is entirely unuseful- silencers exist and acoustics are mysterious at the best times. Edit: since they apparently found the rifle, the chambering should be listed- guesswork is now totally obsolete.
And concerning engraving bullets: that would supremely fuck with the ballistics. You could engrave the case if you felt so inclined, I guess…
Nobody carves bullets, but most people would consider the casing part of the bullet. Journalists are often imprecise, especially with things they’re not familiar with.
Well, we got images of the primary suspect today, so I’m guessing we’ll get more pics soon.
Here’s what I think we know so far:
