Gunmen opened fire on peaceful protesters in Thailand early
Saturday, killing one and wounding three, national security chief
Paradon Patthanathabut said. Police do not know who the gunmen are.
Protesters had gathered in the government district of Bangkok this week
to demand the ouster of the country's prime minister and threatened to
shut the city down for a month in January.
At a protest earlier this
week, one police officer died and scores of people were injured,
according to police. In all, eight people have died from injuries
sustained during the protests that began almost two months ago,
according to the Bangkok emergency agency Erawan.
