Two dead, including gunman, at school shooting in Thailand, officials say

At least one teacher was ​killed and four other people injured by ‌a student who opened fire at a school in Thailand north of Bangkok on Friday before killing himself, ​authorities said.

Lt Col Dechrapee Kongdee Nonthaburi Provincial ​Police Commander confirmed the casualties to Reuters and ⁠said the suspected gunman had died by suicide. ​Among those injured were one teacher and three ​students, he said.

The incident took place in the Bang Kruai district of Nonthaburi province. Police identified the perpetrator as a ​student.

In photos circulated by emergency workers, students ​streamed out of the Debsirin Nonthaburi School, on the northwestern ‌outskirts ⁠of Bangkok, as ambulances operated. In one photo, one person is seen lying down on a stretcher outside an ambulance, while another is attended to ​by a ​medic.

In the ⁠2025 academic year, the school had an enrollment of around 3,100 students ​and 147 teachers, according to district authorities.

In ​February ⁠a teacher died and a student was injured in southern Thailand's Hat Yai district after a gunman opened ⁠fire ​at a school.
