Three people were killed when unknown gunmen opened fire at a pickup truck in Narathiwat Thursday morning.
The victims were identified as Meusoh Ali, 44; Masolae Ali, 37; and Mahama Waemamu, 19. They were all related. The only survivor, Yaneeya Ali, 29, said the attackers - also in a pickup truck - fled after he shot back with his pistol.
"But my brother was shot and our truck swerved off the road," Yaneeya said. "After calming down, I went looking for help."
Police found 10 spent bullets from assault weapons including M16 rifles at the attack site on the TanyongmasDusongyor Road in Rangae district.
According to Yaneeya, he and his brothers were carrying Bt300,000 in cash and were on their way to buy rubber trees.
Police say they are not sure if the attack was related to a trade conflict or the unrest in the deep South. http://www.nation...70578.html
