I did not find any specific caliber information. I did see a lot of “bullet fragments” listed. This tends to show up in high velocity rounds that shatter upon impact. This is NOT consistent with low velocity pistol rounds. It MIGHT be possible should every one be using fragmented rounds.
Also of concern is the fact that there are not powder burns. This would indicate that the shots were made from at least 5 to 7 feet away.
All in all, more questions and no improvement in the understanding of what actually happened.
Many cops use blue rounds, frag rounds, etc.
Civilians tend to use steel jackets or lead rounds, and the occasional hollow-point.
Also, if most of the shots are to the head and neck, to me that implies a trained shooter with a rifle. Most in-close gun battles with pistols tend to be center-mass shots - stomach or chest.
What actually happened: during a scene where many armed police were present and nine motorcycle enthusiasts were shot dead, 117 people with zero prior arrest or criminal records were kidnapped at gunpoint by police, held hostage for a minimum of two weeks on million-dollar ransom, and made to pay thousands of dollars in order to return to their normal lives, jobs, professional/financial/family obligations, etc.
For any and all who care to do a minimum of looking at FACTS -- not opinions, but FACTS -- that is an excellent understanding of what really happened.

Fragments are also very common with hollow point pistol rounds.

Several deformed bullets were recovered whole.
Seven of recovered from the dead were MEDIUM caliber. .38 or 9mm or similar.
“Also of concern is the fact that there are not powder burns. This would indicate that the shots were made from at least 5 to 7 feet away.”
Er, that means it was a ‘distant’ shot. In the medical field that means about two feet or more.
I think...we know some of what happened.
