泰国曼谷郊外发生严重枪击事件。一名14岁学生在位于农甲府省的德布西林农甲府学校开枪射击，造成至少7人死亡，其中包括该校5名工作人员和他自己的2名祖父母[1][3]。超过20人在枪击中受伤，其中10人伤势严重[1]。事件发生在周五上午约10时，学生在学校开枪前已在家中杀害了其祖父母，随后在校园内自杀[1]。
该枪支为小型、紧凑型，合法登记在学生祖父名下[1]。警方发现射手共开了超过20发子弹，且在其自杀后仍发现30发剩余子弹[1]。德布西林农甲府学校约有3000名学生，年龄跨度为12至18岁[1]。泰国总理证实射手为14岁，并表示该学生显示出与学校相关的压力迹象[1]。
泰国虽然是亚洲枪支拥有率较高的国家，每100人约拥有15.1支枪支，仅次于巴基斯坦[1]，但无差别枪击事件并不常见[3]。泰国2023年的枪支死亡率为每100,000人3.49人[1]。这起事件也反映了泰国近年来的枪暴力问题——2022年曾发生泰国最致命的平民大规模杀害案，一名失业警察射杀37人，其中包括托儿所的24名幼儿[3]。
A 14-year-old student opened fire at Debsirin Nonthaburi School in Nonthaburi Province, northwest of Bangkok, on Friday morning around 10 a.m., killing at least five school staff members and injuring more than 20 people, with 10 sustaining severe injuries [1]. Before the school shooting, the student had already killed his two grandparents at home [1][3]. According to Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul, the student subsequently took his own life; officials noted that he had displayed signs of school-related stress [1].
The perpetrator fired more than 20 rounds at the school using a small, compact firearm legally registered in his grandfather's name [1]. Police later discovered approximately 30 remaining rounds of ammunition after the student's suicide [1]. Debsirin Nonthaburi School serves approximately 3,000 students between ages 12 and 18 [1]. In total, at least seven people were killed—five school staff members and the two grandparents [1][3].
Thailand has the second-highest rate of gun ownership in Asia, with approximately 15.1 firearms per 100 people, second only to Pakistan [1]. The country recorded a firearm death rate of 3.49 per 100,000 people in 2023 [1]. While mass shootings remain uncommon in Thailand despite relatively high civilian gun ownership, the country has experienced other high-profile shooting incidents in recent years [3].
