A horrific mass shooting in Thailand's capital has shocked the world after a suspect was caught on video opening fire in a popular market and the death toll continues to rise as the injured fight for their lives in hospital.
In the video, which has been widely circulated online, a man can be seen shouldering a rifle and firing at apparent random down a crowded alley in the Or Tor Kor markets, not far from Bangkok. It was around noon local time on a busy weekend day in what is normally a safe and bustling shopping district.
According to local authorities, there were at least six fatalities and several more injured. The victims were all adults, including at least 4 women.
Police are still piecing together what happened and have not yet determined a motive. The suspect, who was not apprehended at the scene, was reportedly wearing a bulletproof vest and was seen getting away in a silver car.
This shocking and horrific incident has certainly rattled a country that is no stranger to gun violence and mass shootings, but continues to strive for a safer and more peaceful society.
As details continue to emerge, one thing is certain: the victims and their families are in our thoughts and the world is a little bit darker today.
Stay safe, everyone.
