Pak Kret police were called to a second hand motorcycle dealership and repair shop called Chang Nott in Bang Phoot sub-dsitrict of Nonthaburi.

 

They found one .38 casing. 

 

Beer, 17, a mechanic said that 6-7 burly men had arrived in a black Fortuner and another car.

 

They talked to his mate Fluke, 16, a fellow mechanic. He understood they were chatting for 5-10 minutes after Fluke advertised a Kawasaki Serpico for sale on Facebook.

But he told Pak Kret police that suddenly one man put a gun into Fluke's back as he was abducted and put in one of the vehicles.

 

As this happened one of the gang shot in the air and was confronted by another gang member who asked him why he did that before he was shot in the ribs.

 

It was not clear from the Siam Rath story if 25 year old Surachai from Bangkok was still at the scene after the shooting. 

 

The gang escaped with Fluke.

 

A close friend of Fluke, Por, also 16, said that he didn't believe this was about the bike for sale. That was all legal and above board.

 

He told police that hundreds of thousands of baht had appeared in his friend's account. 

 

He said he had opened an account for a gang to use.

 

It appears that the young man helped himself to money that was not his resulting in a visit from some "people of influence".

 

Police are looking at CCTV to get a lead in the case as investigations continue into the abduction.

I believe the story indicates  a shot into the air, then another shot into somebody's ribs. Why not two cartridge casings found ?

I'm pretty sure .38 pistols only come as revolvers = why wre ANY shells found?

No. Who did not shoot whom in the ribs. Who is on second base.

Bang Phoot

Sounds like the name of a not-very-sanitary sexual act.

Sticky finger syndrome will always get you stuck.

You're obviously not familiar with firearms.

I'd be unhappy also.

 

Perhaps he shouldn't steal money from people.

The other gun could be a revolver.
