v"I love you, mama," a 4-year-old victim at a Thai daycare said in grief.
Thailand's UTHAI SAWAN (AP) — The young girl was known as Plai Fon.
It signifies the joyous "end of the rainy season" in Thai.
The happiness that the chubby-cheeked 4-year-old had represented for her beloved family was abruptly shattered in a single horrifying outburst of violence.
It has been replaced with an indescribable sorrow over what transpired to Plai Fon during the massacre
that started at her Thai daycare centre and left 36 people dead, in addition to the murderer.
At least 24 children, mostly toddlers, were hurt in the gun and knife attack on Thursday in northeast Thailand.
