A Russian woman is in hospital in Phuket after slashing her throat in a branch of 7-Eleven.
The shocking incident happened on Friday at a 7-Eleven in Patong.
The woman, 41, reportedly entered the store on Friday where she bought a knife, then went to the back of the store started slashing her throat, local media reported.
In footage shared to social media, horrified staff can be heard pleading with the woman to stop.
Images from the scene show a large amount of blood on the shop floor. (The Times decided that the images were unnecessary and upsetting.)
Police and rescue workers were called and the woman was taken to Vachira Hospital in Phuket, where she was treated for her injuries.
The woman received treatment for more than 60 wounds to her neck, arms and abdomen.
While the woman is expected to make a full recovery from her physical injuries, doctors said she will be transferred to a hospital in Surat Thani on Monday to evaluate her mental health.
