At least seven people were killed on Friday when a student opened fire at a school in Thailand before turning the gun on himself, a national police official said.
Students streamed out of the Debsirin Nonthaburi School, on the northwestern outskirts of Bangkok, as the wounded were loaded onto ambulances and teachers hugged each other and cried.
In photos circulated by emergency workers, one person is seen lying down on a stretcher outside an ambulance, while another is attended to by a medic.
Lt. Col. Trirong Phophan, a spokesman for the National Police, told Reuters the suspected shooter was among the seven people killed. Fifteen people were injured, he added.
