A man who allegedly killed two people and shot up a coronavirus field hospital in Pathum Thani has been arrested after fleeing the crime scenes to hide out in Ranong. An investigation is now underway to uncover the motive for the attacks.
They began early yesterday when the suspect, identified as Kawin Saengnilkul, 23, a former soldier, killed a 32-year-old worker at a 7-Eleven at Soi Lat Phrao 25 in Bangkok before travelling to a field hospital set up at the Princess Mother National Institute for Drug Abuse Treatment in Pathum Thani and killing a 54-year-old Covid-19 patient.
