two people were injured this morning after a gunman opened fire inside a bus traveling from Phuket to another province.

At around 7am on Friday, police were alerted that a man, later identified as 24-year-old Nawin Chuaikliang, shot passengers inside a bus in Phuket.

Nawin was reported to be a former military man. 

 

Two passengers – a man and a woman – suffered gunshot wounds. They were sent to a hospital for treatment, according to Col. Suchart Mheelampong of the Phuket Police. 

The bus, painted in pink and white, was en route from Phuket to Phatthalung province. It was traveling along Thep Krasattri Road in Phuket city when Nawin, who was already on the bus, started shooting at passengers. 

 

At around 10am, the Phuket Police and SWAT team shut down the road and surrounded the bus to capture Nawin, who still remained inside. 

After hours-long negotiation, police shot tear gas into the bus. They entered the bus and found the body of Nawin, who had turned the gun on himself.
