No one has been reported hurt, according the the city’s Erawan Medical Center, which coordinates emergency response services. The man suspected of firing some 20-40 shots was refusing to surrender more than six hours later. Police have cleared the area around the building where the man is, and Thai TV Channel 3 said a family member was brought in to try to convince him to surrender. The shooting was reported to have started at about 4 a.m. Friday in a residential neighborhood with small shops, many selling sporting goods, next to Chulalongkorn University. The incident comes less than a week after a shooting rampage in northeastern Thailand by a soldier who killed 29 people.
