Thai soldier gunned down after football match

[Bangkok Post] Two men on a motorcycle shot and killed a Thai soldier as he returned to his base after playing football in Narathiwat province on Thursday evening.

Police said Ekamarin Sriraksa was hit by six bullets when attacked along the Bacho-Ban Thon Road in Bacho district about 6:30pm. They said Ekamarin had ridden his motorcycle alone from his base at Wat Urai Ratanaram to play football at the field of the Bacho tambon administration organization. On his way back, two men on another motorcycle approached him from behind. Witnesses said the pillion rider fired gunshots at him.

Officials who inspected the scene said the trail of blood showed the stricken soldier tried to run for life into a roadside forest but the gunman followed him and fired more shots, killing him.

Police blamed separatist militants.
