A family was on alert after an uncle said that he would kill them all within three days. 

 

But no one really believed that Sakdina Charoenying, 64, would murder them. 

 

He arrived at the back door of a well known florist's in downtown Sa Kaeo on Monday afternoon. 

 

He attacked several relatives with a knife and another weapon as he went from room to room. 

 

A 37 year old nephew of the man tried to disarm him and was fatally stabbed. The victim's father, mother and another uncle were all hurt.

 

The assailant was tied up by relatives and the police were called.

Wiraya Charoenying was dead at the scene. Four other people were taken to hospital. 

 

Sakdina was taken on a reenactment and is now in custody. 

 

He had threatened his family after they said they would report him to the police. 

 

An investigation is underway as to why Sakdina decided to target his family.

Poor nephew died trying to stop the carnage, sad so very sad.

No mention of drink or drugs involved, but he must have been under the influence of something to do such a thing.

perhaps he wasn't getting his demanded free handouts from the family business and didn't like the idea of actually working to support himself - sounds familiar

He was under the influence of thinking he was the most important person in the family; it is common here and when reality suddenly hits home these types are likely to explode with rage through 'Loss of Face'.

Maybe it just wasn't a good year for the roses.

Maybe he had DTs from no alcohol... could be
