Student Kills Six at Debsirin Nonthaburi School in Bang Kruai, Nonthaburi Province

Basado en hechos observados y verificados directamente por nuestros periodistas o por fuentes informadas. La Policía ha identificado al autor como un estudiante de la escuela. El autor de los hechos se ha quitado la vida tras matar a seis personas. La Policía tailandesa informó este viernes de que siete personas han muerto, entre ellas el presunto autor, tres profesores y tres estudiantes, y otras quince han resultado heridas tras un tiroteo en una escuela de secundaria en la provincia de Nonthaburi, al norte de Bangkok. Según el informe, divulgado por una agente policial de la cadena de televisión de la Policía en Facebook, dos de los heridos se encuentran en condición crítica, sin especificar si son estudiantes de la escuela, una prestigiosa institución pública tailandesa. El servicio público de radiodifusión, Thai PBS, informó asimismo de siete muertos, incluido el sospechoso, y 15 heridos, aunque se espera que las cifras puedan variar al ser informes preliminares. Medios locales, entre ellos Thai PBS, indicaron que el presunto autor es un estudiante de secundaria de 15 años, lo que no ha confirmado la Policía tailandesa. Se desconocen los posibles motivos del tiroteo. Los primeros reportes de la Policía sobre el suceso a través de sus cuentas en redes tuvieron lugar alrededor de las 10.00, hora local de este viernes (03.00 GMT). Las autoridades indicaron que el sospechoso se encontraba dentro de la sala de computadores del centro educativo, identificado por medios locales como la Escuela Debsirin Nonthaburi, situada unos 15 kilómetros al noroeste de la capital tailandesa. Se trata de un prestigioso centro educativo para alumnos de entre 12 y 18 años que pertenece a una de las redes de escuelas públicas más prestigiosas y antiguas del país, a las que han acudido altos cargos políticos de Tailandia. El país cuenta con un elevado índice de armas de fuego por habitante y los tiroteos no son inusuales, con facilidad de acceso a las mismas para personal del Ejército y la Policía, y normativas laxas y anticuadas para su adquisición por parte de la población. El pasado febrero, la directora de una escuela de Hat Yai, en el sur de Tailandia, murió en otro tiroteo, después de que un hombre irrumpiera a tiros en el centro, además de tomar como rehenes a profesores y alumnos, luego liberados.

Al menos siete personas han muerto, entre ellos tres profesores y tres alumnos, y 15 han resultado heridas este viernes en un tiroteo en una escuela de una provincia situada justo al norte de la capital de Tailandia. El atacante, un adolescente de entre 14 ... y 15 años, también ha fallecido, aunque no está claro si fue abatido por la policía o si se quitó la vida. Acudió primero al domicilio de sus abuelos para matarles antes de ir al centro. El ataque ocurrió por la mañana en una prestigiosa escuela secundaria de la provincia de Nonthaburi cerca de Bangkok. Tailandia tiene una de las tasas más altas de posesión de armas de fuego en la región, con un estimado de alrededor de 10 millones en circulación, es decir, una por cada siete habitantes. Las promesas anteriores de endurecer las leyes sobre armamento no han impedido que se produzcan recurrentemente los tiroteos. La policía tailandesa disparó y detuvo en febrero a un adolescente que abrió fuego en una escuela del sur del país, lo que dejó como saldo la muerte del director y dos estudiantes heridos. En 2022, un expolicía armado con una pistola y un cuchillo irrumpió en una guardería en el norte del país y mató a 24 niños y 12 adultos, en lo que fue una de las masacres más mortíferas de Tailandia.

(CNN) -- At least one teacher was killed and several people were injured after a student opened fire inside a school in Thailand on Friday, according to Reuters, citing authorities. Early reports indicated two deaths and 15 others injured, one of them critically, according to Boon Tech Tong Foundation, one of Thailand’s largest rescue teams. In a statement, the foundation said, “Officers are making urgent efforts to evacuate students from the area.” The shooting occurred at Debsirin Nonthaburi School, a well-known high school with about 3,000 students, located on a major highway in Bang Kruai District, Nonthaburi Province, north of Bangkok. Reuters quoted the Nonthaburi Police Chief, Major Detcha Phra Kongdi, as saying the suspect committed suicide and that authorities have identified him as a student at the school. The Central Investigation Bureau of Thailand told CNN that the situation is now under control. Reuters reported that among the injured were one teacher and three students. A CNN-verified video shows students rushing out of the school while a staff member assists with evacuation. Emergency teams also rushed to the scene carrying stretchers, and Reuters’ photograph showed a person lying on a stretcher outside an ambulance as a medic treated another person. Firearm ownership in Thailand is relatively high compared with other Southeast Asian countries. According to the 2017 Small Arms Survey, Thailand has more than 10.3 million civilian firearms, roughly 15 firearms per 100 people. Thailand also ranks second in Southeast Asia in firearm-related murder rates, after the Philippines, according to the 2019 Global Burden of Disease database from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington. In February, a teacher was killed and a student injured in Hat Yai district in southern Thailand after an armed man opened fire inside a school. In 2022, 36 people were killed, including 24 children, in an attack on a child care center in northeastern Thailand, believed to be the deadliest shooting incident in the country’s history.

Teachers and children were killed after a student opened fire at a high school in Thailand on Friday morning, in one of the deadliest school shootings in the country in recent years. At least six people were killed, three of them students and three teachers, according to police spokesman Lieutenant General Trairong Phiwphan, who added that more than a dozen people were also injured. Terrified students huddled under their desks, sobbing as gunfire was heard nearby, according to a video filmed inside a classroom and verified by CNN. Another video showed students running from the school as a staff member helped them evacuate. The shooting occurred at Debsirin Nonthaburi School, a well-known high school with about 3,000 students, located on a busy highway in the Bang Kruai district of Nonthaburi Province, north of Bangkok. Although early reports cited police saying the suspected attacker had died, Trairong confirmed that he remains in critical condition and doctors are providing emergency treatment. At least 15 people were injured, two of them in critical condition, Trairong said. Thailand’s Central Investigation Bureau told CNN that “the situation is now under control.” A photo provided to CNN by a Bangkok police official shows a single pistol and several rounds of ammunition scattered on the ground inside the school. It is believed the firearm belonged to a relative of the suspected attacker, but police have not yet determined how he gained access to it, police spokesman Trairong said. He added that the suspect had been living with adult relatives rather than with his parents. Emergency workers rushed to the scene with stretchers. In a Reuters photo, one person lies on a stretcher outside an ambulance, while another is treated by a doctor. Firearm possession in Thailand is relatively high compared with other Southeast Asian countries. There were more than 10.3 million firearms in civilian hands in Thailand, equivalent to about 15 guns per 100 people, according to 2017 data from Small Arms Survey (SAS) based in Switzerland. Thailand ranks second among Southeast Asian countries with the most firearm homicides, after the Philippines, according to the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) from the 2019 Global Burden of Disease database of the University of Washington. In February, a teacher died and a student was injured in Hat Yai district, in southern Thailand, after a gunman opened fire at a school. In 2022, 36 people died, 24 of them children, in a massacre at a daycare center in the northeast, considered the deadliest incident of its kind in the country. This is developing news and will be updated. Reporting by Laura Sharman, Isaac Yee and June Jeong, CNN.

Bangkok (EFE). Thai police reported on Friday that three teachers and three students have died, and fifteen other people have been injured in a shooting at a secondary school north of Bangkok, in which the alleged shooter also died. According to the report released by a police officer on the Police channel on Facebook, two of the injured are in critical condition, without specifying whether they are students of the school, a prestigious public institution in Thailand. Meanwhile, the public broadcasting service Thai PBS has reported seven deaths, including the suspect, and 15 injured. In February of last year, the director of a Hat Yai school in southern Thailand died in another shooting after a man burst into the center and took teachers and students hostage, who were later released. Thailand has a high firearms per capita rate, and shootings are not unusual. Army and police personnel have easy access to them, and the regulations are lax and outdated for civilian acquisition.

La Policía de Tailandia confirmó este viernes la muerte de tres docentes y tres alumnos, además dequince heridos, trasun tiroteo en un institutosituado al norte de la capital. El supuesto agresor también perdió la vida en el lugar de los hechos. Una agente, en una intervención difundida por la cadena de televisión de la propia Policía enFacebook, precisó que dos de los heridos permanecen en estado crítico. No se detalló si estas dos personas forman parte del alumnado deeste reconocido centro público tailandés. Por su parte, la emisora públicaThai PBSelevó a siete el número de fallecidos, entre ellos el sospechoso, y mantuvo en 15la cifra de lesionados. Medios locales, entre ellosThai PBS, indicaron que el presunto autor es unestudiante de secundaria de 15 años, lo que no ha confirmado la Policía tailandesa. Se desconocen los posibles motivos del tiroteo. Los primeros reportes de la Policía sobre el suceso a través de sus cuentas en redes tuvieron lugar alrededor de las 10.00, hora local de este viernes (03.00 GMT). Las autoridades indicaron que el sospechoso se encontraba dentro de la sala de computadores del centro educativo, identificado por medios locales como laEscuela Debsirin Nonthaburi, situada unos 15 kilómetros al noroeste de la capital tailandesa. Se trata de un prestigioso centro educativo paraalumnos de entre 12 y 18 añosque pertenece a una de las redes de escuelas públicasmás prestigiosas y antiguasdel país, a las que han acudido altos cargos políticos de Tailandia. El país cuenta con unelevado índice de armas de fuego por habitantey los tiroteos no son inusuales, con facilidad de acceso a las mismas para personal del Ejército y la Policía, y normativas laxas y anticuadas para su adquisición por parte de la población. El pasado febrero, la directora de una escuela de Hat Yai, en el sur de Tailandia,murió en otro tiroteo, después de que un hombre irrumpiera a tiros en el centro, además de tomar como rehenes a profesores y alumnos, luego liberados.

At least four people were killed and 15 students injured in a shooting incident inside a school north of Bangkok, the Thai capital, on Friday, according to local officials. Deputy Interior Minister Pol. Col. Polapong Sivasubchoy told Thai PBS that two students and two teachers were killed in the attack at a high school in Nonthaburi Province, noting that the students’ injuries were not from direct gunshots but occurred while they were trying to escape. Local media reports, citing authorities, said the shooter was a student at the same school and that he also died. Conflicting accounts describe the cause of his death, with some reports saying police shot him and killed him, while others say he committed suicide. Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul told reporters at the government complex in Bangkok, “This is an extremely horrific incident. It should never have happened. How could something like this occur in our country?” Polapong explained that the suspect used a pistol, and the Interior Ministry is investigating how the student obtained it. Reuters images showed the suspect wearing a purple school uniform and carrying a black body-crossing bag, with empty shell casings on the ground. A Reuters correspondent observed traffic nearly at a standstill near Debsirin Nonthaburi School in Nonthaburi Province, while local media reported that parents were gathering to pick up their children after the incident. Thailand remains one of the countries with the highest gun ownership rates in the region, with estimates of about 10 million firearms in circulation, roughly one firearm for every seven residents. Previous pledges to tighten gun ownership laws did not prevent repeat shooting incidents. Thai police had shot a teenager and arrested him after he opened fire inside a school in southern Thailand in February, killing the school director and injuring two students. The teenager used a weapon that was a police-issue submachine gun in that attack. The local police chief at the time said the suspect had been hospitalised for psychiatric treatment in December, but left the hospital after his condition improved. Shortly before the incident, the teen stabbed a police officer with a knife and stole his 9mm pistol, which he then used to carry out the attack. In 2022, a former police officer armed with a pistol and a knife stormed a daycare in northern Thailand, killing 24 children and 12 adults, in one of the country’s bloodiest massacres. © 2026 AFP

Así lo ha informado el portavoz de la policía nacional tailandesa, Trairong Phiwphan, según la agencia de noticias Reuters. Entre los fallecidos en este instituto de la provincia de Nonthaburi hay profesores y estudiantes. Según el informe divulgado por una agente policial en la cadena de televisión de la Policía en Facebook, dos de los heridos se encuentran en condición crítica, sin especificar si son escolares. Previamente, las autoridades habían indicado que el sospechoso se encontraba dentro de la sala de computadores del centro educativo, identificado por medios locales como la Escuela de Secundaria Debisirin, situada unos 15 kilómetros al noroeste de la capital tailandesa. Segundo tiroteo en una escuela en lo que va de año Este es el segundo incidente de este tipo en lo que va de año en Tailandia, un país que tiene un elevado índice de armas de fuego por habitante y donde los tiroteos no son inusuales. El pasado febrero, un hombre que había sustraído un arma de la Policía irrumpió a tiros en un colegio de la ciudad de Hat Yai, en la provincia meridional de Songkhla. Este hecho dejó una fallecida, la directora del centro, y dos estudiantes heridas, una de ellas por disparo. El sospechoso fue detenido unas dos horas después del asalto, tras tomar como rehenes a varios estudiantes. Tailandia intensifica los controles sobre licencias de armas Tras ese suceso, el Gobierno del país asiático ordenó intensificar los controles para quienes buscan obtener licencia de armas, quienes no deben tener antecedentes penales ni historial de consumo de drogas, entre otros requisitos; y una supervisión más exhaustiva sobre quien ya las posee, entre otras medidas. El Gobierno mantiene la suspensión temporal para portar armas en lugares públicos, vigente desde diciembre de 2023, con un castigo máximo de hasta 5 años de prisión. Esta restricción fue implantada tras el tiroteo perpetrado por un menor de edad en octubre de ese año con una pistola de fogueo modificada para disparar munición real en un popular centro comercial de la capital, donde murieron tres personas. Tailandia cuenta con normativas laxas y anticuadas para la adquisición de armas por parte de la población civil. Uno de los episodios más trágicos ocurridos en el país fue el asalto en 2022 a una guardería del noreste tailandés por parte de un expolicía, que dejó 34 fallecidos, 22 de ellos niños. Y en febrero de 2020 un soldado asesinó a 29 personas e hirió a 58 durante un asalto armado en un centro comercial en la provincia nororiental de Nakhon Ratchasima.
