class="mw-redirect" title="Saipan">Saipan</a>. His first location was Kannat Tabla, where he shot and killed four people (two men, a four-year-old boy, and a two-year-old girl) at a shooting range at 11:21 a.m. A four-year-old girl, who was the daughter of one of the slain men and also the older sister of the deceased girl, was also shot in the chest, but she survived her injury. He then drove several miles to Marpi, where about 60 people were taking pictures of the area. There, he fired his rifle at a group of <a href="/wiki/South_Korea" title="South Korea">South Korean</a> tourists from inside his van, wounding five of them, two of whom were children. </p><p>From there, he traveled to the popular tourist destination Last Command Post Park, which was the location of <a href="/wiki/Japan" title="Japan">Japan</a>'s last base for military commanders during <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>. There, he set his van on fire and then walked to the edge of Banzai Cliff, firing along the way. Upon arriving along the edge of the cliff, he committed suicide by shooting himself in the head with his rifle as police closed in. A search of the van's remains recovered three additional rifles and more than 750 rounds of ammunition.<sup id="cite_ref-Police_Identify_Gunman_in_Saipan_Rampage_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Police_Identify_Gunman_in_Saipan_Rampage-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Saipan_Shooting:_Gunman_Opens_Fire_On_Pacific_Island;_5_Dead_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Saipan_Shooting:_Gunman_Opens_Fire_On_Pacific_Island;_5_Dead-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Authorities:_Gunman_kills_4,_wounds_6_on_Saipan_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Authorities:_Gunman_kills_4,_wounds_6_on_Saipan-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The shootings lasted for an approximate half-hour.<sup id="cite_ref-5_dead_in_Saipan_shooting_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5_dead_in_Saipan_shooting-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The shooter fired 40+ rounds during the shooting, and a note written by him was found, although its contents will not be released.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Victims">Victims</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=2009_Saipan_shootings&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Victims"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Five people (including the gunman) were killed and nine others were injured.
