[webfact]

 

Police arrested one of two suspects who brutally assaulted a victim, which left him blind and with a severe skull injury. The second suspect, reported to be a youth, is on the run.

 

The victim, 26 year old Smith Sarapithong, filed a complaint after the incident at Bang Phli Police Station in Samut Prakan province near Bangkok on August 10. Smith informed the police that two men he did not know physically assaulted him.

 

According to Smith, the perpetrators assaulted him with a baseball bat until he lost consciousness in Soi Plu Charoen in the Bang Phli district of Samut Prakan province. As a result, he is now blind in his left eye and his skull is cracked.

Smith’s sister, 23 year old Amara Sithong, reported to officers that she believed that the perpetrators were the partygoers who engaged in an argument with her cousin, 22 year old Peeraphat Kaweewake. Amara said Peeraphat had a dispute with the two men at a bar nearby the scene and sought help from her.

I think self-discipline and self-control is not important to these guys here. What is really wrong here?

Everything.

Just the usual Thai male sense of entitlement. 'I can do whatever I want, and then post about it on social media and challenge the police to arrest me'. Seems he thought he was invincible. Probably not, but we'll never read how the case ends up will we, because there are too many other assaults and murders in Thailand to write about each day.

Perhaps it happens when they feel there is no chance to win the girl since there is a good looking guy who already got her attention.
