Popular Post webfact Posted August 5, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 5, 2021 A 52 year old Scottish man who has been living in Thailand for two years in Chachoengsao decided to get out his mobile phone and start filming a Thai man trying to damage and steal from a gasoline vending machine outside his rental property. Mr Lennon recognised the Mitsubishi car that was caught on CCTV from a few days earlier. Seeing the foreigner filming him the Thai man, Manas Juikert, 38, grabbed his phone and threw it in some water. He then attacked the Scot with a knife injuring his arm. Police took the foreigner to the Buddhasothorn Hospital after Manas fled the scene. The suspect drove to Bang Nam Priaw district where after police phoned ahead he was intercepted. He crashed his car into a police vehicle, span his car and ran off into a reservoir area where he was soon arrested. The drama happened last night and was reported by Thai Rath. Police found a one meter sword and a kitchen knife in the car and drug taking equipment. Manas was incoherent but denied attacking anyone saying that he fled the police because he was worried about the drug stuff in his car. He was tested for drugs but the result was not yet reported. He has initially been charged with damaging a police vehicle as evidence is gathered and further charges could be lodged today. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2021-08-05 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 1 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh? No charge for assault? The knife attack was so unimportant and insignificant? Mistake nunber one was getting close enough to be assaulted. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what I think. I think you just read too much news, and suddenly believe that the ones behaving like that represent the majority. That´s the scary stuff here. That - violent reaction - is what we usually hear from other Thais that tries to protect a foreigner, and that's what we usually read in the news, i.e. don't get involved in any kind of conflict with Thai males; sad but likely the truth. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gottfrid Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 2 hours ago, silver sea said: Ezzra is one of the regulars on this Forum who posts a lot, and is popular with the other readers. I suspect that he missed out a word: the word “don’t”; or maybe spellcheck changed, for some reason, what he typed and put in “to” instead. Possibly, what ezzra meant to type was: “Scary stuff, Thais usually don’t react that way even the worse of them, that guy must have been really peed off seeing someone filming him...” ezzra’s comment makes no sense without the word “don’t”. One of my common faults, when typing, is to leave out negatives like “don’t” and “not”. I do it all the time. And spell check hates me; it’s always ‘correcting’ what I type. Live and let live, mate. People sometimes complain that it’s always the same small number of members who keep posting on these threads. You know what I think? Part of the reason why more people don’t post here is because of aggressive comments like yours. Why post a comment if you’re going to get a response, or an opinion like yours? Possible.

Yep, there we have it again. Likely!? Guess work at it´s best, or have you been attacked more than once. Maybe have experience of thousands of such guys with Thai nationality? Right dude!

2long Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Is the word 'stabbed' in the headline correct? Yes, he attacked him with the king knife and yes he hurt the Scot's arm, but it's nit so easy to stab someone in the arm, especially with a weapon that long. And if you were stabbed with that, you'd sure as hell know about it. Fair play to the Scot* though. I hope he's ok. *Wouldn't we normally refer to these people as Brits? ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would guys in your country not react that way if a foreigner filmed them committing a crime? Thais, IMHO, are less likely to react violently than people in my home country, Scotland. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
