BANGKOK — Police are on the alert after reports of shots fired at a technical college in Bangkok's financial district, which police suspect to be an instance of gang warfare.

According to police, "numerous" shots were fired at Rajamangala University of Technology’s Uthen Thawai Campus, known to many Thais simply as Uthen Thawai, on Phayathai Road at around 11 pm last night.

Security guards at the university told police no one was injured in the shooting. Police say they have not determined the direction of gunshots or identified the perpetrators.

However, police officers noted that violence between rival technical colleges in Thailand often spikes in the days leading up to the schools' anniversaries, and the anniversary of Uthen Thaiwai's founding, 1 February, is approaching.
