Police in Pranburi reported that four men are in custody and warrants for a further three have been issued following the shooting of a man on the Pranburi - Hua Hin bypass on Tuesday. 

 

Watthanasin "Fluke" Poolat, 26, was shot in the chest and died later in Ratchaburi Hospital. 

 

His pillion passenger Athiwat "Moss" Meunsawat, 28, was injured. 

 

Prajuab Khirikhan provincial police chief Pol Maj-Gen Surasak Suksawaeng was in Pranburi yesterday to check on progress in the case. 

 

Police said that a man called Natthacha or "Khuat" was involved in a love triangle over a woman with Moss.

 

A Facebook challenge was issued and Fluke, from Hua Hin, and Moss from Pranburi went to a pre-arranged spot near a U-turn on the bypass. 

 

But then they were fired upon. 

 

Khuat's Isuzu pick-up is part of the evidence and police have a 9 mm gun used in the shooting.

Did you read that i wrote that? It may be a possible reason and + other reasons ofc, as I have read thai news (in thai) and in news groups on Facebook for several years, I have noticed a decrease in shootings and violence, also back then Facebook was full of people seeking help with friends or family that has been victim of violent crime.

Just look at pattaya, from having daily stabbings,shootings,armed robberies against tourists and thai, attacks to having almost none and I know this because I am born and raised in pattaya living on the darkside half my life

You said gun crime and violence. This ‘stat’ whatever it’s supposed to mean, isn’t about shootings and violence in general. It’s about homicides. 

 

Seemingly, it is that hard to find. Unless of course......

If homicides are down (which they are, quite significantly), that would imply other violent crimes (esp gun crimes) are likely to be down, too.

 

The stats are around 2 years old, but for assault and car theft, crime rates are down by a large percentage over the last ten years or so).

All homicides are a form of violence. Not all violence is homicides. Actually,  a tiny fraction of violence is homicides compared to any other non-leathal forms of violence. 

 

Again, we were told that shootings and violence are ‘way down’. Where are the stats?

 

I’m not talking about burglaries and car thefts, etc. Just shootings and violence in general.

many crimes go unreported.

around 4,000 rapes reported to police, Police admitted themselves that the likely incidence of rape in Thailand was likely to be 30,000 cases per year roughly equating to four an hour.

majority of violence is with guns, but stabbings common too.

car thefts are very low, motorcycle thefts is the norm, most motorcycles stolen in thailand and sold in cambodia,myanmar,laos by gangs.

break ins are a big problem hence security bars on 99% of all houses and buildings.

bag and gold snatching is very high.

street robberies not very high, store holdups/ gold store robberies fairly common.

 

it is not stats but as im half thai,i watch thai news everyday this is my observation of what is high and low, and most of all shootings,stabbings, and other crimes big chance not ends up on thai visa and similar news sites.

 

example

 

 today 2 shot dead, 2 injured in the city of hatyai (songkhla) when gunman was not happy about a car revved his engine and diesel smoke came out of exhaust (revving engine is seen as provocation and cockiness, the gun man had an murder already linked to him in 2018 when he killed a person, he was out on bail and was currently fighting the murder charge in court. 

 

5 days ago also in hatyai (songkhla) 2 got shot in road rage.

 

today in songkhla Forest protection staff shot dead in assasination.

 

today in songkhla 5 armed criminals with assault rifles robbed gold store got away with around 60 million in gold.

Read posts properly before you comment: the poster I was referring to said violence and shootings since 2014 are ‘way down’. 

 

This isn’t true. Which is what my post was saying.
