On 17 October 2024, at 5:00 p.m., it was reported that a social media post from the Facebook page "Khon Kaen Complaints" circulated widely across Khon Kaen. The post featured a message from a Burmese man threatening to carry out a shooting at a prominent shopping mall in the city centre.

 

Upon investigating the matter, reporters discovered that over 100 armed police officers and local officials had been deployed around the mall. Security was reinforced at all entrances and exits, and thorough checks were conducted on those entering and leaving the premises, following strict safety protocols.


Khon Kaen Governor Kraisorn Kongchalad confirmed that both uniformed and plainclothes officers, as well as administrative personnel, were stationed inside and around the mall.

 

Police patrols also monitored the surrounding area, including car parks, to ensure maximum security. Forces from Khon Kaen Police Station, the tourist police, a SWAT team, and volunteers were on high alert, ensuring the situation remained under control until the mall closed.

Meanwhile, investigators were reviewing social media activity and working closely with the mall to guarantee safety. Authorities have already identified a suspect, and further investigations are underway.

 

Despite the threat, the mall’s operations continued normally, with security forces maintaining strict vigilance across the site, reported Siam Rath.
