However, police clarified that the case is a robbery incident and not a shooting incident.

The school principal also believed there was no foul play involved, pointing out that this was not the first time the boy had stolen from the school.

Authorities are now continuing their investigation while the family pushes for legal action.

In the Philippines, if a robber accidentally shoots himself and dies during the crime, police will still conduct a full investigation to confirm the cause of death and the events that led to it.

The case is usually documented as an attempted robbery with a self-inflicted gunshot wound resulting in death.

Since the suspect is already dead, there will be no criminal charges filed against him, but the investigation may continue if he had accomplices, who can still face charges such as robbery, illegal possession of firearms, or even homicide if their actions contributed to his death.
