In an unsettling event in Ang Thong, a ferocious gunfight erupted in a restaurant, resulting in Phumphat (last name withheld), also known as “Ek Wat Channiramit”, aged 45 years old, losing his life. With over 30 cartridge cases found at the scene, the suspected rival believed to be severely injured fled in a Sedan car. The incident unleashed chaos late evening yesterday.

 

The gunfight venue, located in the city municipality area, is a semi-pub restaurant. Authorities found a pool of blood and numerous bullet shells spread across the gunfight event site. Among the debris, a 9 mm handgun was also discovered. The injured victim was rushed to Ang Thong Hospital by emergency responders, where he later succumbed to his injuries.

 

Phumphat, known as “Ek Wat Channiramit” sustained two bullet wounds on his abdomen and another six on his back. The identity of the assailant remains unknown till now. However, the alleged gunman discarded a white and blue Honda Nova motorbike bearing the number ‘Kor Bor Por 222’ from Singburi, which was used for commuting to the gunfight crime scene, before escaping in an unidentified Sedan model car.

You don't need money. No-one is going to give you the bill /check once you start firing everywhere.

Was the handgun bought from the police, usual suspects.
