[webfact]

 

Pattaya — A foreign man in Pattaya was brutally stabbed by another foreigner whom the police believed was his friend for unknown reasons at 1 AM this morning, June 4th. The suspect stole the victim’s motorbike and is currently on the loose.

The foreign man of unknown nationality and identity was found with six severe stab wounds on his neck and body on Soi Jomtien 13 in the Nongprue sub-district of Banglamung district, Chonburi province.

 

He was aided by rescuers from the Sawang Boriboon Thamasathan Foundation and Pattaya Police before being rushed to the nearest hospital. The victim was lying in a pool of blood when he was found. Another blood pool was spotted about 20 meters away from the man.

 

The weapon of assault is currently unknown. Pattaya police interviewed a Thai woman who first spotted the victim, Ms. Wanphen Thothong, 42, and learned that she did not see what had happened. Ms. Wanphen only saw the foreign man lying on the ground covered in blood when she arrived at the incident scene.

if, according to the article, no one saw the assailant, how can anyone "believe" that he was a foreigner?

"

According to a police report, a CCTV recording of the site showed that the victim arrived at the scene of incident on a motorbike with another male foreigner. The victim was the one driving the bike, while the other individual was seated on the backseat.

The unidentified person was wearing a white shirt and black trousers. After the injured victim parked the motorcycle, the other foreigner walked away briefly and then returned to stab the victim, causing both him and the motorcycle to fall to the ground."

And Jomtien joins the ranks of notoriety. 

Not much on soi 13 but the Dvaree. It is a dead end I think.

presumably what they meant was that it was a foreign man but not enough to describe his appearance in details, even going as far as to surmise that it was a friend of the person who was attacked.

Who really knows the root of friendships?  Certainly NOT Pattaya police who were invisible throughout the busy weekend resulting in lengthy delays on the roads.  Expect further mayhem today.
