Khaberni - The Taiwanese police arrested a man accused of firing shots from his air rifle at a kindergarten in the Wenshan area of Taipei.
The police explained that the suspect, named Hwang, lives near the kindergarten and began firing the shots in late January due to being disturbed by the noise of children. Initially, he targeted the building's exterior walls, and the damage was not discovered until the kindergarten staff noticed broken windows and damaged water pipes, and reported the incident on January 21.
After analyzing security footage and gathering evidence, the police identified Hwang as the main suspect and searched his home last week, where they seized three air rifles, two bottles of pellets, a box of shotgun shells, a mobile phone, and a tablet.
Hwang told the police that he resorted to shooting after his repeated complaints to the kindergarten management and the relevant authorities failed to resolve the ongoing noise issue.
