Thai security forces kill ‘mad’ soldier who went on shooting rampage
- Soldier was armed with assault weapons stolen from his barracks
- Gunman posted updates to his Facebook page during the rampage
Thai security forces on Sunday killed a soldier after he carried out a shooting rampage that left at least 21 people dead, police and military sources said.
They said he had been killed at the shopping centre where he was holed up in the northeastern city of Nakhon Ratchasima.
“The police have killed the perpetrator and rescued eight hostages. Some were wounded,” said one of the security sources.
Both declined to be named because they were not authorised to speak to the media.
The killings began at around 3pm on Saturday when the soldier opened fire in a house before moving to an army camp and then to the mall, posting messages on Facebook as he went.
Early on Sunday, gunfire broke out at the mall as security forces tried to dislodge the soldier, identified by police as 32-year-old Jakrapanth Thomma.
Thai media said the suspected gunman had worked at an army base close to Nakhon Ratchasima, which is about 250km from the capital Bangkok. Before the attack, Jakrapanth had posted on his Facebook account that he was out for vengeance – but he did not say for what.
“We don’t know why he did this. It appears he went mad,” Defence Ministry spokesman Kongcheep Tantrawanit said.

Shocked and not too much to say but just an appalling act of cowardice taking so many innocent lives, I feel for the surviving families affected. Tragic.

I'm surprised it went on for so long. What a tragedy. I don't understand the random killing of people nor the killing of someone you have a dispute with. I hope he died slowly with lots of pain.
Still here, in country...
