Nine of the wounded are in critical condition, according to Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul. Police said the boy fired at least 26 bullets from his grandfather's gun and had 34 more rounds on him. The PM stated the teen was 'under stress' linked to his schooling and had planned the attack. Anutin vowed to introduce a new law restricting public gun carrying to government officials only.
