Thai college students on rampage

More than 200 Thai college students went on a rampage against a rival school, wielding hand grenades and guns in an attack that left one student dead and dozens injured.

Hundreds of students from the Bangkok campus of the Institute of Technology vocational college threw hand-made explosives at the Bangkok Commercial College compound, which was open for night classes.

Police say one male student among the group of attackers was found shot dead while dozens of students were left injured in the aftermath of the melee.

About 210 students were detained and later charged on four counts, including organising a violent raid, arms possession and rioting with intent to kill.
