A Thai man defending his pregnant wife from an attack from a man with mental health issues wielding a knife was fatally stabbed in the chest.

 

Bang Sao Thong Police Station officers were called to the stabbing scene in the Keha Muaeng Mai Bang Phi Village in the Bang Sao Thong district of Samut Prakarn at 12.30am today.

 

On arrival, officers encountered two injured victims at the scene, one was a 29 year old man named Pornthep Siwan and another was Pornthep’s pregnant wife, 37 year old Siriporn Singkhan.

 

Pornthep bore a critical stab wound to his chest. He was rushed to Chularat 5 Hospital where he later succumbed to his injury.


His pregnant wife, Siriporn, sustained injuries to her knees and mouth. She was transported to the hospital for initial first aid and a thorough assessment of her pregnancy.

Made the fatal mistake of interfering in other peoples business... 

I learnt very quickly to just move on by.

Well he did try to drive away when they saw the knife, unfortunately they crashed and the perb just kept coming, and went for his wife.

Quite tragic. Brings to mind 2 things that could have saved the husband. 

 

1. At some point, Thailand is going to have to pay some attention to mental health issues. One insipid administration after another has been ignoring this for decades. 

 

2. If the husband had some self defense or fighting skills it is quite possible he could have disarmed and beaten down the homicidal freak. Always a good idea to educate ourselves with at least basic fighting skills.

At 79 and a farang I would do exactly the same if it were my wife who had been attacked.

 

And NO, I would not spend any time figuring out if it was the right thing to do. I would simply do it.

My point was not if do or not do. Of course he should do. Never said anything else. My point was the need to quickly figure out how o deal with the situation. That could have saved his life.
