Tragedy strikes in Thailand: Teen athlete brutally gunned down in southern Thailand

[webfact]

 

In a shocking incident yesterday, a 15 year old boy was brutally gunned down on a road in the Lungsuan district in the southern Thailand province of Chumphon. The tenth-grade student-athlete, identified as P, was shot eight times by three men in a pick-up truck.

 

Witnesses revealed they had been returning home from a fruit festival when a white Mitsubishi pickup truck pulled up and the occupants in the vehicle fired four to five rounds before speeding off.

 

P’s 50 year old father, Wachara, and his 44 year old uncle, Chetsada, said the attack was extreme and shocking.

 

Police reported that there was substantial evidence to believe there were four assailants involved in the brutal murder but they have yet to make any arrests. The boy will not be cremated until the criminals are arrested.
