The police officer, who was arrested after a day-long armed stand-off with special operations officers at his house in Bangkok’s Sai Mai area, has died from wounds he sustained during the siege.

 

Pol Col Rangsan Sornsing, superintendent of Sai Mai police station, said today (Thursday) that Pol Lt-Col Kittikarn died at about 10pm at Bhumibol Hospital, to which he had been admitted for emergency treatment yesterday afternoon.

 

He disclosed that there was a shootout when the Arintaraj police unit stormed the house where Kittikarn was holed up at about noon yesterday, adding that the officer, who had psychiatric problems, tried to escape arrest by jumping through a window on the second floor of the house.

And yet again they are going to do something about situations like this?

Some people have not yet forgotten what happened when a Policeman

with known mental issues is going of the deep end.

I know they own their own gun but in some cases that should be taken

from them for their own and others safety.
