A man opened fire during an attempted robbery on June 28, before fleeing empty-handed.
In October 2010, the same man killed a victim during a robbery, according to police.
In December 2009, the same robber killed a man with a shot to the head and robbed him of 45,000 yuan.
Two months earlier, he shot dead a man with a home-made gun, the report said.
Two earlier crimes attributed to the same man took place in Chongqing.
