AP, NAKHON RATCHASIMA, ThailandA soldier with a grudge gunned down 26 people and wounded 57 in Thailand’s worst mass shooting before he was fatally shot inside a mall in the country’s northeast yesterday, officials said. Much of the shooting took place at Terminal 21 Korat, an airport-themed mall filled with colorful Lego sculptures, a merry-go-round and huge replicas of landmarks from around the world. Video taken outside the mall showed people diving for cover as shots rang out on Saturday afternoon. “First I saw a woman run out from the mall hysterically,” said Nattaya, who shot video of the scene on her cellphone. He said the gunman had fired at others at his base and took guns and ammunition before fleeing in an army Humvee.
