Robbie Dye Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 17 July, 2007 Adjust font size: Tourist injured in Pattaya attack PATTAYA - A tourist and a security guard were injured by a man armed with a machete-like weapon at a Pattaya shopping mall in the early hours of Monday morning. Police using rubber bullets and high-powered water jets eventually subdued the man. The 26 year-old assailant was seen prowling in front of popular Mike Shopping Mall armed with a one foot-long knife. He attacked suddenly, slashing the tourist on the arm and severely injuring a security guard who tried to intervene. The Pattaya Daily News reported that the two victims were subsequently taken to Pattaya Memorial Hospital for emergency treatment. This appeared on Travelmole this morning! Poor guys, police got there too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmart Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 (edited) Some more here, c/w pics. Looks and sounds like a complete balls-up, replete with the Keystone Cops Fire Dept helping out in the ineptitude category.
