When police and rescue workers arrived at the scene of the shooting, next to the Ta Toseh Shrine near the OrBorJor hospital, Saowalak Samthong, 41, was still alive. But despite their best efforts she died from a bullet wound in her chest before she could be taken to hospital.
Her grandson told police that he had driven her to a shop nearby and on the way back, on the dark road, shots rang out and Ms Saowalak pitched over, causing the motorbike to fall.
In addition to the fatal bullet that killed Ms Saowalak, police also found three bullet holes in the wall of the shrine. The investigation continues.
