With rounds still in the magazine, wonder why he didn't attempt to shoot the police and make a full getaway.

Only xenophobic toward 1 out of 200 or so countries. That's pretty good, isn't it? :D :D

UPDATE: The suspect was identified as Thoun Thane Rasy, 29, who is divorced from his wife, but continued to be jealous. His wife was seeing another man, a 25-year-old sports teacher called Touch Veasna, and Rasy became mad with anger when he saw the couple posted on Facebook together. So, he got hold of a gun and went after his ex-wife's boyfriend and shot him dead, and said that he would also shoot his ex-wife. Fortunately, police have taken him into custody.

10 May 2019
Upon learning of his ex-wife’s new relationship, Mr Theanyreasey became angry with Mr Veasna. Mr Theanyreasey proceeded to search for the victim’s home address, workplace and also learned about his day-to-day activities.

Cap Vuthy noted that after finding all the information, at about 11.30am on Wednesday, Mr Theanyreasey followed Mr Veasna to the school where he worked. By 12pm, Mr Veasna and his friends went to have lunch just outside of the school.

“While the victim was eating, Mr Theanyrease approached him,” Cap Vuthy said. “As he came closer to the victim, Mr Theanyreasey took out a pistol and shot the victim’s neck, which caused him to die immediately.”

“During the shooting, everyone who sat nearby the victim did not dare to help. They ran away at the sight of Mr Theanyreasey’s gun,” he added.

Cap Vuthy said that afterwards, Mr Theanyreasey fled the location on his motorbike, which he parked about six meters from where the shooting happened. Mr Veasna’s friends soon alerted the police following Mr Theanyreasey’s departure.

Within 30 minutes, Mr Theanyreasey was arrested and the police seized a pistol along with eight unused bullets, his identification card and a motorbike.
