Police said that forensics personnel were on the scene and had seized one gun and two magazines. They appear to have cordoned off the Chu Hsin Pawnshop (巨新當鋪) on Sichuan Road and are still investigating the motive for the shooting, per CNA.

The case will be referred to the Banqiao Precinct of the New Taipei City Police Department for further investigation.
