mcd Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Teenagers from Bang Saen involved in a shooting that occurred in the Sriracha area were arrested here in Pattaya while they were on the run. On 25th June Pattaya police chased after the 10 teenagers on 5 motorbikes when they were informed by Sriracha police on the radio that this gang had just shot people in Sriracha, someone was seriously injured, and the group was heading towards Pattaya. They were caught on the outskirts and were escorted to the police station for questioning. The teenagers stated that most of them reside in Bang Saen. Earlier a total of 20 friends on 12 motorbikes headed out to have fun in Sriracha. Here they met a group of local teenagers who turned out to be their enemies – a shooting then took place. The teenagers stated that they weren’t the ones who used the gun to injure anyone. It was one of their friends that had the gun who had fled in another direction. Later the police found that the injured person knows the gunman well and now have his address to go search in Bang Saen. The police recorded all the men’s details in case the Sriracha police need them, they also detained the bikes that had no proof of ownership, and then let the men go. http://www.pattayapeople.com/default.asp?F...;IdArticle=6360 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
