A group of red-shirt protesters clashed with more than 100 residents at Mahanak Market on Monday night. Two residents were shot dead and at least 10 people were injured.
Reports said more than 100 locals at Bangkok's Mahanak Market were trying to drive out the anti-government United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) protesters from the area before the clash erupted.
Gunshots were heard periodically.
The locals asked for assistance from about 30 police and military officers stationed nearby the area, but they did not respond to the request.
The two men, who were allegedly gunned down by the red-shirts, are identified as Pom Polphanbua, aged 54, and Yuthakarn, 19.
One of the wounded were shot in the ankle.
