In Taoyuan City, a 44-year-old man surnamed Yang shot at the Jingfu Police Station on the evening of March 23 due to dissatisfaction with the handling of a case by the police, resulting in an injured police officer during the escape. The Taoyuan District Prosecutors' Office has filed charges against Yang for attempted murder, shooting in a public place, and other gun-related offenses, seeking a sentence of 18 years in prison. Yang had harbored resentment towards the police for previous incidents, including face-offs over firearms and disorderly conduct, and was arrested on the same night. The prosecutors highlighted his disregard for human life and public authority, causing serious harm to public safety, leading to the 18-year sentence recommendation to deter similar actions.
