| [Bangkok Post] A teacher was killed and another injured by motorcycle gunmen on Friday while on their way to an event to assist people mourning for the late King of Thailand. Two militants on a motorcycle followed their car as they left their office in Pattani province. The two women were going to help dye clothing black for mourners of the king at a function organised nearby. They had driven only 50 meters when the motorcycle drew alongside and the pillion rider fired at least six shots at them. The two killers then sped off on their motorcycle. The car's driver was killed. The passenger was injured and was rushed to the hospital. Footage from a security camera in the area showed the two attackers on a motorcycle. The police said a check on the motorcycle revealed it was reported stolen in Muang district on July 23. |
