Families tell of the moment they heard about gun and knife that killed 37 people, most of them children
White sheets were pinned across the entrance to the children’s centre in Nong Bua Lamphu on Friday morning, and draped across tables outside. On the steps leading up to the low-slung building, white flowers were left as tributes. In the baking sun, weeping families gathered outside the building where 37 people, most of them young children, had been shot and stabbed.
As the country battled to come to terms with its worst mass killing in decades, the town of Uthai Sawan was swamped by grief. As well as disbelief and shock, there was anger.
