The incident occurred on March 28, when Jimmy noticed three dead chicks outside his Khukhan district home. Unaware he had accidentally run them over, the chicks belonged to Weeraphon, his wife's uncle. When confronted, Jimmy apologized, but Weeraphon attacked him with a knife.

Following the attack, Jimmy received hospital treatment for severe injuries, including a skull fracture and required 30 stitches. The incident has heightened his fears as local police have yet to apprehend Weeraphon. Saimai Survive, a non-profit organization, has promised to work with authorities to assist Jimmy in pursuing legal action.
The victim suggests underlying family tensions may have contributed to the attack, although he did not provide specifics. As investigations continue, there's a push for justice and resolution with local police coordination.
