Like the headline says, the Chief of Police Don Ramsdell in Tacoma says that the victim and the shooter in the Tacoma school shooting did know each other, but the motive is still unclear.
However, he says that the shooting does not appear to be gang or racial related. The victim of the shooting, 17-year-old Samnang Kok, left behind a 2-year-old son. The shooter, Douglas Chanthabouly, was arrested without incident, and the police recovered a handgun in the arrest. Chanthabouly did not have a criminal record.
