Songdo Murderer, Seems to Have Made Homemade Gun... Police Deploy Profiler

[Financial News]  The homemade gun used by a man in his 60s who killed his son in Incheon is analyzed to have been manufactured rather than purchased from a third party.
A representative from the National Investigation Headquarters of the National Police Agency said on the 21st, "The discovered gun appears to have been manufactured. Judging by its form, it seems difficult to purchase."
Mr. A is accused of firing a homemade gun at an apartment on the 33rd floor in Songdo-dong, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon, around 9:31 PM the previous day, killing his son, a man in his 30s. The police tracked down the fleeing Mr. A and captured him in Seoul at around 12:20 AM that day, then transferred him to Incheon.
Regarding the suspicion that Mr. A confronted the police during his escape, they said, "It is a matter that requires the suspect's investigation," but also stated, "It is not believed that there was a confrontation." The police plan to deploy a profiler to understand the motive for the crime.
