According to Thai media reports, the shooting has killed 34 people, including 22 children, and the youngest victim is only 2 years old. Another 12 people were injured, including 8 seriously injured.
The suspect was a former policeman who was dissatisfied with being dismissed for drug-related reasons. After the incident, he fled in a white pickup truck and committed suicide during the roundup. According to Reuters , the suspect also shot his wife and children.
It is reported that the suspect entered the government department in 2012 to serve as the commander of the Yanawa Police Station in Bangkok, and was later transferred to the Nawang Police Station in 2019. After that, I had a dispute with my girlfriend because of a long-distance relationship, and I was also infected with drugs, which led to my weakness and a bad temper. On the day of the shooting (October 6), Thai Interior Minister Anubong immediately ordered the closure of nurseries in the area after learning of the shooting. At the same time, Thai Prime Minister Prayut has ordered the case to be investigated immediately and expressed deep condolences to the family of the deceased.
