"They're trying to kill me" - man attacks girlfriend with scissors then holds her hostage in lavatory

[webfact]

Picture: Thai Rath

 

Thai Rath had dramatic still pictures of police behind a bullet proof shield going into a house in Sattahip on Thailand's eastern seaboard where a man had taken his girlfriend hostage in a lavatory.

 

They managed to rescue a woman.

 

Earlier Somwang Sang Udom, 33 had arrived at the house shouting: "They're trying to kill me".

 

He then attacked his girlfriend Rungthiwa, 30, with some scissors leaving a pool of blood outside.

 

He then took her hostage at knifepoint.

 

Police spent 30 minutes trying to talk him into surrender but eventually used the bullet proof shield to charge into the locked lavatory and make an arrest.

 

A nine cm kitchen knife was on the floor. 

 

Rungthiwa had five wounds to her neck, chest and ribs and was taken to hospital.

As the suspect was being led away the younger brother of the female victim aimed foul language in his direction and tried to attack him.

 

Krisadee, the victim's mother said that her daughter had known him for four months and he had been pestering her at the house.

She ran for cover fearing attack herself. 

 

Police are preparing assault and possible charges of illegal detention against the suspect.

 

Drug tests have been ordered.

A reminder why we should live in the low socioeconomic parts of Thailand.

 

The villages are full of these characters.

Our village had one a few years ago. Serial thief and scared alot of people when out of his head on yabaa.

Then one day he disappeared and a policeman turned up at his mum's house and told her she'd never be seeing him again.

Exactly my thoughts upon viewing the picture.

 

I know women like these "bad boy" types, but I wish they would think about the possible harm they are bringing to not only themselves but their family too.

"Ex navy?" More likely an ex convict.

Full? That tells us what you know about Thailand. Heard it on the last barstool?

That style of tattoo intended to be hidden by T shirt and shorts, is hallmark Thai gang ink.

I lived in a small rural village for almost a decade.

 

It's mostly: elderly, children, and degenerates.

 

There are a few upstanding citizens of working age, but most have left to go to places with opportunities.

 

Plenty of gang violence. Someone gets beat to death once or twice a year at some big party.

 

No shortage of drug addicts, alcoholics, drunk driving, illegal guns, theft, robbery, dog poisoning, property damage, illegal tree cutting, teenage daughter pimping, wife beating, child abuse, child neglect, animal abuse, animal neglect, illegal gambling, loan sharking, extortion, violence, suicide etc etc 

 

I saw it all, Buddy, in the relatively short span of about 8-9 years and not from a barstool!

 

Well, I did have my own barstool. ????

Yeah, there is your problem! 1 village for almost a decade. Please, feel free to come back when you have like 6-10 on your list.

Now you have said that you based your great knowledge of "The villages are full of these characters", on 1 village. Do you see it yourself, or do I need to help you?

[TheFishman1]

Yep those tattoos all over him are definitely gang type tattoos TIT

How pathetic the world has become when attacking someone with a bladed item it is not classified as attempted murder.

Couple of guys I used to work with back in Oz had loads of tatts that couldnt be seen when in a short sleeved business shirt and tie.....guess they were Thai gang members too.

[Aussieroaming]

The only thing missing in the photo of the "trash" was an accompanying trailer.

 

I can't say that the girlfriend had particularly good taste either, though I hope that she recovers and can move on as they say.

[rwill]

Good thing she didn't bleed to death in the 30 minutes they spent trying to talk him down.

We are talking about the Thai underworld, not sensible Aussie tattoo enthusiasts.

 

But why don't you first check with any Thai person who can speak English before embarrassing yourself on here again?

His  ending may not be nice.

[PETERTHEEATER]

At first glance I thought the OP pic was of three armed men robbing an ATM......????

[peter zwart]

Again one of Thailands pride. A brainless Jaba using Sj!thead.

[MrJ2U]

He looks like a good kid.

 

Looks can be desieving.
