Pattaya —A Thai man in Pattaya was assaulted by a group of intoxicated men while riding his motorbike with his two nephews (aged 9 and 4) and mother on April 19th, 2024. The incident occurred during the recent Wanlai Day.

The victim, Mr. Theerawat Sawasdirak, reported the assault to Pattaya police on April 20th. He recounted the incident, saying he was riding a motorbike home with his two young nephews and mother when he drove past a parked pickup truck where a group of intoxicated men were playing water and listening to loud music in celebration of Wanlai Day in Pattaya.

 

As they were passing, one of the intoxicated men reportedly threw water at his face, nearly causing him to lose control of his motorbike. Mr. Theerawat stopped his vehicle and confronted the group, questioning why they splashed water directly at his face instead of his body. He emphasized to the group the danger it posed to his nephews and mother on the back of the motorbike.

Mr. Theerawat didn't observe that the men were drunk and didn't play by the rules.

Appalling behaviour, but he should know it was unwise to stop, especially with youngsters on board.

No danger having 4 up on a motorbike? All wearing helmets?
