A troubling incident unfolded in Thailand’s Nonthaburi province, situated just north of Bangkok, where a student opened fire at a school on Friday. The report, based on information from the police and relayed by Reuters, mentions an unconfirmed number of fatalities.
The Bang Kruai district, where the shooting occurred, was shaken by the event. Authorities have identified the suspect as a student. However, details about the victims, the suspect, or any potential motive remain undisclosed as the investigation is still in progress.
This tragic event is part of a series of school shootings this year. Earlier, a deadly shooting at a high school in British Columbia, Canada, occurred in February.
The U.S. State Department was approached by Newsweek for comments late Thursday night via an online form.
