A soldier who went on a shooting rampage in northeastern Thailand, killing at least 20 people, was shot dead by security services on Sunday morning after he holed himself up in a shopping centre.
Police and military sources told Reuters they had killed 32-year-old Jakrapanth Thomma a few hours after a failed raid on the Terminal 21 mall in Nakhon Ratchasima left one member of the security forces dead and two injured.
"The police have killed the perpetrator and rescued eight hostages. Some were wounded," said one of the security sources who declined to be named because they were not authorised to speak to the media.
The death was confirmed by Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul.
