(Bangkok = Yonhap News) Correspondent Jong-Hoon Kang = A groom opened fire at a wedding reception in Thailand, killing five people and injuring one person.
According to local media such as the Bangkok Post on the 27th, this incident occurred at 11:25 pm on the 25th at a house in the Wangnam Kieo area of the northeastern Nakhon Ratchasima Province.
The groom, Chaturong Suk-suk (29), who was having a reception with his family and relatives at home after a traditional wedding, took a pistol from his car and killed his bride, who was 15 years his senior, his mother-in-law, and his sister-in-law.
Additionally, one of the guests died and another was seriously injured.
A total of 5 people died and 1 person was injured that day, including the culprit who later committed suicide.
The criminal, a former soldier, lost one leg in an accident while on duty several years ago, and won a silver medal as a member of the national swimming team at the ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) Paralympic Games in Indonesia last year.
It is reported that he was drinking at the time of the crime and got into an argument with the priest.
Witnesses reported that the groom had distrust and anxiety about his bride.
The two lived together for three years and then got officially married.
Thailand has recently been troubled by a series of shooting incidents.
On the 3rd of last month, a 14-year-old boy opened fire at Siam Paragon, a luxury shopping mall in Bangkok, killing three people and wounding five others.
On the 11th of this month, a technical college freshman and a female teacher in her 40s were killed by a pair of gunmen on the streets of Bangkok.
On the 20th, a 16-year-old student was killed on the street after being shot by a gunman on a motorcycle.
Thailand is a country where gun ownership is allowed as long as you are legally permitted to do so.
The government has begun to strengthen gun regulations, including temporarily suspending the issuance of new gun licenses, but shooting incidents continue.
