Two women were shot, one in the cheek, after leaving a pub in Pattaya last night in a brutal drive-by shooting. Police believed the shooter shot the wrong people.

 

The ferocious attack took place near the entrance of Pattaya’s Soi Chaloem Phrakiat 4/1 at 02:10 AM today, March 24th. Sawang Boriboon rescuers aided two women who had been shot while driving their Mercedes-AMG home, namely Ms. Nippawan Vola, 26, and her Chinese friend, Ms. Li Xinying, 24.

 

According to rescuers, Nippawan, a Thai national, suffered a gunshot to the cheek while Xinying was shot in the left wrist. Pattaya Police told The Pattaya News that the victims’ Mercedes had multiple bullet holes and that they found six 9mm bullet shells at the scene of the incident. The two women were rushed to Pattaya Memorial Hospital for immediate medical care.

Pattaya.  World Class Family Resort.

"Drive-by" Pattaya style.  Aren't the shooters the ones normally driving?  This lot use a bus to Sukhothai for their escape.

Amount of Chinese crime here, maybe not

Other reports they were teenagers in conflict with South Koreans at a bar but chased wrong car.  Does not explain why only one shooter arrest or why he is reported to be 29 years old however.  Believe a bit more investigation might be in order - reported police arrived after victims had departed.

So these two young women want to drive their expensive car home from the pub ( they should be breathalyzed) do you know who i am? , reading the full story it does seem like mistaken identity.

9mm Glock....isn't that a favorite with the RTP?

 

Maybe a policeman's son?....so above the law......unless the ladies concerned are hisos.
