Crime Gunman Kills Niece and Her Husband in Boundary Dispute
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A 72-year-old former village headman shot and killed his niece and her husband in a daylight attack triggered by an ongoing feud over a boundary wall between their adjoining homes. The double homicide occurred around midday on 4 May, in Soi Boonthanom, Samrong subdistrict, Phra Pradaeng district. Emergency services were alerted via the 1669 hotline and quickly responded, with officers from Samrong Tai Police Station and rescue teams from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation dispatched to the scene. The victims, Mr. Amnat, 55, and his wife Mrs. Surin, 50, were found dead in the driveway area of their home. Mr. Amnat had been shot in the chest, while Mrs. Surin had been fatally shot in the head. Seven 9mm bullet casings were found scattered at the scene, along with a semi-automatic handgun, believed to have been used in the shooting. The suspect, identified as Mr. Manit, a 72-year-old former headman of Village 5 in Samrong, reportedly fled the scene in a Toyota saloon car. Police launched a manhunt, alerting nearby patrols to intercept the vehicle. Investigators confirmed that the victims and the suspect were relatives, living in adjacent townhouses separated by a shared concrete wall. The fatal confrontation reportedly stemmed from a dispute over the construction of a new noise-blocking fence, which the victims were undertaking. Tensions escalated after Mr. Manit accused his relatives of damaging his property during the work. According to statements from family members, the altercation began when Mr. Manit demanded that no drilling be done on the shared fence. Mrs. Surin allegedly challenged him, asking whether he would dare to shoot. He then retrieved a firearm and opened fire on his niece’s family. A neighbour reported hearing six to seven gunshots, after which the assailant drove off. Police later confirmed that the suspect had also attempted to shoot the victims’ son, who narrowly escaped unharmed by fleeing into the house. This is not the first violent incident involving Mr. Manit. Just a month prior, he had been involved in another altercation in which an 80-year-old woman, reportedly a family member, was struck on the head with a metal bar. That case remains in the courts. Local residents expressed shock at the escalation of what had been a long-standing dispute between the family. At 15:20 on 4 May, Police Station officers were able to track down the suspect while he was driving on Khao Lam Road, Bangsaen inbound, Saensuk Subdistrict, Mueang Chonburi. He was arrested and taken to investigators in Samrong. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-05-05. -

Accident Man Killed, Wife Critically Injured in Collision in Amnat Charoen
Picture courtesy of Komchadluek. A road crash in Amnat Charoen has claimed the life of a 71-year-old man and left his wife critically injured after a speeding car collided with their pickup truck early on morning on 4 May. At around 06:30, Pol Sub Lt Wisarut Aruno, an investigator at Mueang Amnat Charoen Police Station, received a report of a collision between a sedan and a pickup truck at a U-turn near Ramkhamhaeng University in Amnat Charoen province. Medical personnel from Amnat Charoen Hospital, Phetkasem Rescue Foundation, and local emergency services from Kaikam Subdistrict were dispatched to the scene. Upon arrival, authorities discovered an Isuzu D-Max pickup truck, bronze-gold in colour, with Ubon Ratchathani registration plates, overturned on the driver’s side. Under the vehicle lay the lifeless body of Mr Swat 71, with severe head injuries and significant blood loss. Preliminary investigations revealed that Mr Swat and his 54-year-old wife, Mrs Chaveewan, were travelling from Det Udom District, Ubon Ratchathani, to Loeng Nok Tha District in Yasothon. While passing through Amnat Charoen city, their vehicle was struck from the rear at high speed by a white Honda Mobilio, registered in Ubon Ratchathani and driven by Mr Krittin 22. The force of the impact sent the pickup soaring over the central reservation, where it struck and toppled a streetlight pole before overturning. Mr Swat was thrown from the vehicle and crushed. Rescue workers had to lift the truck to retrieve his body. Mrs Chaveewan, who was riding in the passenger seat, sustained a serious injury to her head, above her left eye but remained conscious. The pickup was found on the opposite side of the road, while the sedan had careened into a ditch and crashed through an embankment, suffering front-end damage. The driver of the sedan also sustained a head injury and was taken to Amnat Charoen Hospital for treatment. Both vehicles have been seized by police at Mueang Amnat Charoen Police Station for further investigation. Authorities are working to determine the precise cause of the crash, including whether speed, distraction, or other factors played a role. Adapted by Asean Now from Khomchadluek 2025-05-05. -
