Video: British man's car attacked while he slept at Pattaya housing estate

Nong Prue police are investigating after a gang of four masked men attacked a Ford Fiesta car parked outside the home of a 62 year old British man in Pattaya. 

 

The gang used wooden clubs to smash up the vehicle that was shown in a RukSiamNews video with a destroyed front windscreen and side driver's window. The car was also doused in an automotive fluid. 

 

An empty bottle of motorcycle brake fluid and a rock were taken into evidence. 

 

Mr Leslie Hodgson - who was not wearing a shirt - told police he was sleeping in his two story townhouse in the Rung Reuang Phase 2 estate when he heard noises outside.

He got out to find his car seriously damaged. He said he had no idea why anyone would target him and he said he had no problems with anyone. 

 

The estate has no CCTV, reported RukSiamNews.

 

However police became aware that the attack was perpetrated by four men. One had his face covered by a motorcycle helmet and the other three wore surgical masks. 

 

They fled on motorcycles.

Nong Prue station's Snr Sgt-Maj Romran Srikraiphak investigating said that it looked as though the gang had been ordered to attack. It was possible they had targeted the wrong car, he said. 

 

Investigations continue with police hoping that study of neighborhood CCTV will yield a lead in the case.

  • In Pattaya they are Adonis. These blokes pull supermodel looking girls.    Back in the west, blokes with six packs who work out everyday don’t do as well as us, er, I mean, him.

That must narrow it down to every Thai in the past year who's been arrested and their photo appeared in the media.

If it was an old lady etc I might believe it.

 

But a tattooed foreigner living in Pattaya with a huge beer guts makes me a little skeptical. 

 

I wonder if it were farangs or Thais who attacked the car. I am tipping a farang was behind it. Attacking someone’s car is more likely to be farang instigated IMO. 

 

Anyone know him? I can’t remember ever seeing him around.

They all are not as innocent as they look.

 

Maybe I am biased, but tattooed heavy drinking Pattayans, seem to get in more disputes with people on average.

That look is very popular with the ladies in Pattaya.

He is probably with a little stunner. Amazing Pattaya.

Maybe a case of mistaken identity ?

but it does smell.

I hope they find the culprits.

A few years ago in France I had my car totally burned one night, along with many other cars. Luckily i was not inside. Police never found out who did it.

Glad that was pointed out. I thought he was wearing one of his wifes diaphanous negligees.

Wonder if he has had an issue over a parking space out side the house.

That's what the usual out come is.

The beer gut look went out with flairs and long hair. It is quite funny seeing fat guys shirtless thinking they're some kind of Adonis.

you're not much of a detective, are you. It narrows it down to motorcycle riders and people who work in the medical field (as well as people like beauticians and so on). There, I've given the cops their first clue.

He looks like a professional darts player. It could've been a dispute about a tournament ????

What about car and Health’s Insurance? [emoji848]

I'd say that he probably 'pissed somebody right off'

Maybe he stole their little girl. (hope she takes top position)

Its Thailand...get used to it...that's how they take care of business...nothing new here.  This is a normal day in the life of LOS.

Poor good man! Maybe they did not like his tattoos or belly. Terrible hate crime against the whales.
