SEOUL. KAZINFORM - A South Korean soldier who killed five members of his unit has been captured after a failed suicide attempt, defence officials say.
The soldier, identified only as Im, had tried to shoot himself and is currently being sent to hospital.
His capture ends a tense stand-off in a forest near his outpost near the border with North Korea, according to BBC.
On Saturday evening Sergeant Im shot and threw a grenade at fellow soldiers before fleeing.
