Police officers across the country will undergo mental health screening to prevent a recurrence of a 27-hour police siege at a house in Bangkok this week.
The siege at a house in Bangkok's Sai Mai district, where a disturbed police officer had been firing gunshots since Tuesday morning, ended shortly after noon on Wednesday.
Police were continuing attempts to calm down an agitated police inspector with the Special Branch who fired shots into the sky at a housing estate in Sai Mai district of Bangkok late on Tuesday morning.
