At least 20 people are dead and several more injured after a Thai soldier opened fire Saturday in a popular city just north of Bangkok where police say he is holed up in a popular shopping mall," reports say. He entered the shopping center at around 3:30 p.m. and again opened fire, officials said. Security footage from inside the mall appeared to show the suspect armed with an assault rifle. Public Health Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said on Facebook that a doctor was shot while helping an injured person. It also was not clear whether the gunman had taken hostages inside the mall or how many people might still be inside.
