In the early hours of today, a terrifying gun attack unfolded outside a well-known hotel in Patong, Phuket, leaving two young men wounded. The unknown assailant, who drove a dark sedan, fled the scene immediately, igniting an urgent police search.

 

At 4am today, the unchecked violence broke the tranquillity of residents in Phuket. Upon receiving reports of a shooting, Police Chief Chomphununuch Anantayakul, of the Patong Police Station, promptly responded. Aided by her dedicated police force, they swiftly secured the blood-streaked scene at a bustling intersection in the locale of the renowned hotel.

 

Discovering the victims, the police hurriedly administered aid. One of the victims, 21 year old Nutthawut, 21 suffered a gunshot wound to his leg. The second victim, 20 year old Jirawat, was found with a nasty injury to his left hand. Both young men were instantly transported to Patong Hospital to receive the necessary care.


At the scene, the officers found a single 9-millimetre bullet casing, serving as the sole stark reminder of the grave event, reported KhaoSod.
