Western man attacks Chinese man on road in Pattaya

[webfact]

 

A witness posted a video of a Western man attacking a Chinese man on a pavement along Southern Pattaya Road in Pattaya in the early hours of Wednesday, May 24.

 

The witness, 31 year old Pom, told ThaiRath that she spotted a fracas among a group of people while riding a motorcycle past the scene at 3am. She decided to stop and check on the situation where she discovered a Western man violently attacking a Chinese man on the pavement.

 

According to Pom, locals and motorcycle taxi riders attempted to intervene and stop the foreign attacker, but their efforts were fruitless. A Thai woman, believed to be the attacker’s girlfriend, prevented others from interfering and shouted…

“No one can stop him! If he is angry, no one can intervene. Do you know that this man (the Chinese man) crashed his car into me? I nearly lost my life! Who will be responsible if I die? This is not enough. He deserves what he is getting. Do you know how powerful the foreigner is?”

It isn't Ronnie Pickering, is it?

Sounds like a thug.  Hopefully, he'll be caught.

Maybe he's Chinese-Thai and isn't a foreigner?

The quote says, "Chinese man." I'm not a mind reader. It's the newspaper's job to say if they're making an ethnic comment rather than nationality status.

A post trolling about the headline and the replies have been removed.

 

An inflammatory post has been removed.

I have heard, "Do you know who I am?" but not "Do you know who he is?" before.

Why didn't the Chinese guy lock his doors?

[kidneyw]

Disappointed the Chinese guy did not pull off a few Bruce Lee moves and put that wannabe cop on his ar*e.

Close ties?

Is this his way of Policing Tourists, drag 'em out a car and beat the sheet out of them. This guy should be arrested, deported and banned for life. Power crazy nut in a uniform with mental issues. IMO

[AustinRacing]

Good to see the West occasionally stands up to the Chinese. Witness was (a) Pom. ????????????

[MrJ2U]

I have to admit some Chinese are oblivious to there rude and obnoxious actions.

 

Example:

Groups of them walking down the sidewalk literally knocking people down, cutting lines at 7/11, putting chicken bones under the bed, etc.,

 

Perhaps a little attitude adjustment was in order. Especially if he did hit the girlfriends with his car/motorcycle and tried to defer blame. 

 

On the other hand this guy sounds like a psychopath.

Possibly a translation of "farang"?  Obviously that refers to Western foreigners. 

 

Chinese are Asians so aren't really properly foreign.

It's an Oriental brotherhood thing. 

Obviously....not comprehended by Farang.

Because China is the 'big brother'?
