A shocking incident took place where a man lost his life in a brutal targeted attack by two men who claimed to be police officers. The victim, aged 52, was killed at his home after being shot four times. The crime happened in Phetchabun province around 6.30pm, on 19 July.

 

Saichon Pumpuang, the investigative officer from Dong Khoi Police Station in Phetchabun province, promptly received the news of a male victim shot dead at his residence situated in Chon Daen district. The official coordinated with medical personnel from the Chon Daen hospital and, along with the Ruamkatanyu Foundation rescue team, promptly arrived at the crime scene.

 

On their arrival, they discovered the deceased in a wooden house built on high pillars, sitting slumped against a door with gunshot wounds to the face, right arm and abdomen. The investigative team managed to locate a bullet casing that became crucial evidence for their ongoing inquiry.

"Moments later, shouts claiming to be police officers conducting a urine test were heard. The victim, however, asked to use the bathroom first."

 

Not sure who was taking the "p" there.

Sad he sounded like a good man delivering food and groceries to the old lady. I get a feeling they were not fake cops, but after cash on a drug related crime, set up or otherwise.  Shot at least 3 times over a urine sample, I'm lost for words...
