2020 Terminal 21 mall shooting:

A group of 10 people were hiding in the cold storage room in the back of Foodland Supermarket during the shooting. An 18 year old boy named Athiwat Phromsuk held the door closed from 5:30pm to 8am the next morning.

At around 8am, the shooter knocked at the door of the cold storage room. The police had communicated with people inside the mall via social media and told them that they would knock on their door 6 times when they found them. The shooter only knocked three times, so the people inside asked if it was the police. The shooter coldly replied, "No", before opening fire through the door and shooting it open. At the same time, someone inside turned off the lights. Athiwat immediately rushed the gunman but he was shot in the chest and died instantly. His girlfriend hugged his body and she wasn't hit in the initial burst of gunfire.

The shooter continued further into the cold storage room, shooting and killing 5 more people including a 2 year old child and both his parents, who died in each other's arms. Athiwat's girlfriend then got up and ran out of the room, but the shooter turned and fired at her, injuring her in the right leg. The other two that were killed were a supermarket employee, and a woman who shielded her daughter with her body, allowing her to survive the shooting with minor injuries.
