It had a 33-round capacity and 19 rounds remained in the magazine when investigators retrieved it, Chief Shon Barnes said at a news conference Tuesday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>A second gun, which police do not believe was used in the shooting, was found with a full seven rounds in its standard magazine.<\/p>\n<p>Police retrieved a third gun, a Glock model 45 .9 mm pistol with a fully automatic switch. Twenty-one out of 40 rounds remained in the magazine, Barnes said. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>In total, 14 shell casings from two weapons were found at the scene.
