Philippine - Arab Today
Thirty-six bodies were found inside a casino in the Philippine capital on Friday after a masked man burst in with an automatic rifle and set fire to a gaming room, authorities said, but insisted it was not a terrorist attack.
Dozens of others were injured in a stampede as they rushed to leave Resorts World Manila, which is across a road from the Philippines' main international airport, after the man fired what police said was an M4 assault rifle and started the fire around midnight.
The burnt body of the gunman was found in a hotel room inside the complex about five hours later, police chief Ronald dela Rosa said.
Dela Rosa said the gunman only fired at a television screen and did not take aim at any people.
But police later reported finding 36 bodies in the casino who they said died from inhaling smoke that had become toxic because of the carpet on the gaming room floors
