Policeman, four others gunned down in southern Thailand
A policeman, three Muslim villagers and a local leader were killed Monday by suspected Muslim terrorists militants in southern Thailand.
A local official says two men shot the policeman as he rode his motorcycle to his job in Pattani province.
Also in Pattani, four attackers on two motorcycles fatally shot a 37-year-old Muslim man; four other attackers shot a 54-year-old village defense volunteer, also a Muslim, and yet another Muslim man was gunned down while returning home on his motorcycle.
In Yala province, a local community leader -- a Buddhist -- was gunned down while his wife was seriously injured by a lone gunman as they were leaving a wedding reception party.
