webfact Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Pattaya —Two Thai women filed a complaint to Pattaya police after being allegedly assaulted and threatened with a gun by a group of teenagers near Pattaya Walking Street last weekend. The group also fired a gun on the street, terrifying tourists, the victims said. On April 8th, 2024, Ms. A (pseudonym), 31 years old, and Ms. B (pseudonym), 25 years old, took their plight to local media, asking anyone to help track down a group of teenagers who reportedly attacked them near Pattaya Walking Street. Ms. A said that the incident occurred at 5:00 AM on April 6th. She and her sister, Ms. B, were returning from Walking Street to a parking lot when they noticed a large group of teenagers gathered and talking as if they were about to fight. Their motorcycle was parked nearby, so Ms. A told the teenagers, “Excuse me, can I get my motorcycle please?” Ms. A, who was drunk, then told her sister that she didn’t care who was fighting, she just wanted to go home. According to Ms. A, the teenagers likely overheard her conversation with her sister, so they started arguing with her. One woman then grabbed her hair and started slapping and kicking her. Another man also reportedly attacked her.

kidneyw Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Ms. A said "this incident was a brazen act of violence that showed no regard for the law. It also damaged the image of Pattaya as a world-class tourist destination." Do any Thais actually believe this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
