In a shocking incident, an aggressive gunman stormed a house, fatally shooting a friend, before swiftly being apprehended by the police. The incident took place in Nakhon Sawan province, following a dispute over a snooker game and an unsettled bet. The police are investigating the case in detail.

 

Last night, a violent event shook the local community of Phaisalee in Nakhon Sawan. Police revealed that an argument escalated at a home owned by 49 year old Amorn, leading to his death from multiple gunshot wounds. His body bore two wounds on his back and one on the cheek, leaving no chance of survival despite immediate medical assistance, reported KhaoSod.

 

The wooden house, raised off the ground where the incident happened, was typically used for communal gatherings. Witnesses recall seeing Amorn enjoying his meal before being approached by another 49 year old man, Patcharapong. The two men were known to be friends, but on this occasion, they engaged in a serious verbal altercation which concluded in multiple shots fired. Patcharapong fled the scene immediately in his truck.

He snookered the wrong guy and paid the price. Not being able to get out of a snookered ball can be a face losing situation.
