* Authorities have rescued hundreds of trapped shoppers but suspect still at large in the northeastern city

* Thai media said the suspect's mother was being taken to the shopping mall to try to persuade him to give up
* Volleys of gunfire were heard ringing out from inside the besieged mall where the gunman is still holed up
A Thai commando has been killed as security forces desperately try to capture a rogue soldier who has killed at least 21 people in a gun rampage inside a shopping mall - where he is still holed up more than 12 hours after he first struck.
Sergeant Major Jakrapanth Thomma, 32, is hiding out in the Terminal 21 shopping mall in Nakhon Ratchasima, a city 155 miles northeast of Bangkok, after opening fire on terrified civilians this afternoon.
He began his murderous rampage at his barracks, where he executed his commanding officer along with two other soldiers, before commandeering a humvee and tearing away from the scene.
