A survivor of the recent shooting at the Siam Paragon shopping mall in Bangkok recounted her terrifying encounter with the 14 year old gunman. Anyapat Thipjirasakul, while fleeing the scene, came face to face with the teen gunman on an escalator.

 

His immediate reaction was to fire, hitting her in the shoulder. Despite the pain, she continued running, scared he would follow her.

 

Thipjirasakul, one of seven individuals shot by the teenager on the afternoon of October 3, described the harrowing experience from her hospital bed.

 

“It was horrific. I barely slept during my first night. Whenever I close my eyes, I see him and hear the sound of the gun.”


A 30 year old Thai woman, Penpiwan Mitthampitak, is currently in critical condition after being shot multiple times, including in the head. A 30 year old Chinese national, Li Sha, and a 28 year old Laotian national, Kham Phiou are both stable but closely monitored due to multiple gunshot wounds.
