July 28 (UPI) -- Five people died on Monday in Thailand after a mass shooting at a popular seafood market in the south Asian country's capital city.
The gunman at Or Tor Market in Bangkok died by suicide, Police Lieutenant Siam Boonsom confirmed to multiple news outlets.
Four of the victims were security guards and the fifth was a market employee, according to police. Two other market workers were injured.
Boonsom said the shooter was a Thai citizen. He allegedly had a dispute prior to the incident with the security guards after the shooter accused a guard of keying his car.
He added that the shooting was unrelated to Thailand's diplomatic dispute with neighboring Cambodia.
