6 foreign nationals, including 2 Americans, found dead in luxury hotel in Thailand

From Global News.

Thai police are investigating the deaths of six foreign nationals whose bodies were found in a room at an upmarket hotel in Bangkok on Tuesday, including looking for a seventh person in connection with the incident.

All six — who were of Vietnamese descent, with two carrying U.S. passports — checked into Bangkok’s Grand Hyatt Erawan hotel at two separate times after arriving on Saturday and Sunday, police official Thiti Saengsawang told reporters. He added that the group of three men and three women checked into different rooms but their bodies were found in one room, which did not show any signs of struggle.

“Drinks that have been consumed (were found) on the table. There were cups similar to tea or coffee cups — five of them — placed on another table. Every glass was emptied and some residue was found in the glasses,” Saengsawang said.

In Washington, D.C., U.S. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said that the White House was “aware” of the reported deaths of the two U.S. citizens in Bangkok and offered condolences, but deferred to local authorities for any additional information regarding the ongoing investigation.
