Video: Terror on Route 134 - rush hour bus passengers dive for cover in knife and gun attack

 

Picture: Sanook

 

Passengers on a bus service heading towards Bangkok dived for cover as a man armed with a knife and a gun attacked a fellow passenger.

 

The injured man was on a back seat when the attacker got on the bus.

 

CCTV showed a scuffle with both combatants falling over other passengers.

 

Sanook reported that one man was injured by a knife but the gun failed to fire.

 

The injured man is seen checking himself and later went to hospital.

 

The attack happened in the full 134 bus from Bang Bua Thong to Mor Chit (New) bus station on Friday at 7pm.

 

Sanook did not report on police action in the case.

TAT ad.........'You don't have to visit the deep south to experience all Thailand has to offer'?

Saw a lot of tattoos on the victims back. Could it be gang related ? Looked unprovoked.

Tattoos can be also be religious / superstition / ward off bad omens related. Sometimes initiated by father or mother.

 

Not always gang stuff.

Its normal...there is no offense in Thailand... 

[Ramdas]

A lot of Thai hot headed out there although they seem calm on the outside it takes a blink of an eye to let that green alien coming out, oh yes if it’s between Thais it’s tollerated by the complacent police but if there’s a farung involved the whole country is after you ??‍♂️ How safe do you really feel that’s the question ? 

[CLW]

Lucky, I often take this bus.
Good that they have cctv and it's working.

Could be a student rivalry as all are wearing white shirts. Just a guess.

There 134 cities worse than Bangkok. I'm yet to see a mass shooting, as we often see in the USA and in other civilized countries.

The back tattoo didn’t look like a hand made tattoo. Looked more like one by machine. Similar to some gang styles in Japan. Who knows why he got attacked. Almost looked like the victim recognized an attack was coming. If the victim didn’t say why he was attacked, I would be willing to bet it’s gang related. Gangs don’t snitch to the police. It’s one of the worst unwritten codes to break.

Purple line takes different route.

If you want to go to The Mall or Panthip Plaza you take the 134

( or 171 or 528 or micro bus )
