A clip showing the soldier involved in a mass shooting in Nakhon Ratchasima last weekend firing shots at an army private before taking firearms and ammunition from an armoury went viral online on Saturday.
The authenticity of the three-minute-long clip, reportedly obtained from rescue workers in the province, has not been confirmed.
The clip is a compiliation of three sets of footage. In the silent one-minute first set, a man who looked like Sgt Maj 1st Class Jakrapanth Thomma, 32, armed with a shotgun, walked to the armoury at the Surathampitham military camp. He talked to Pvt Metha Lertsiri, 23, who was guarding the place on Saturday afternoon. Pvt Metha then walked into a nearby room with open doors and the soldier fired two shots in his back. He fell to the ground.
The man then fired shots at the lock of the wooden door to the next room and opened the door.
According to army chief Gen Apirat Kongsompong, Jakrapanth took several weapons and ammunition from the armoury before going on a rampage that killed several innocent people on that day.
