Physical Altercation Between Guards and Customers on Soi 6 in Pattaya Goes Viral

[charleskerins]

I watched the video  very surprised that those 3 This guys wreaked so much havoc  ,one was little one was fat (he wanted to throw a punch as soon as he got their)  The farang in the blue shirt either wasn't with them  or when he saw the violence punked . If he had the fat Thai they may have won the fight.Those guards were nasty but if I walked by them on the street I would not think they were fighters.    I also  don't understand who the guy in the grey shirt was?     The kicks to the head were disgusting    looks like they have done it previously.

Ah .... now it's making international headlines. 

 

This is not going to be tough on those bouncers. 

 

Helicopter Bar, which is understood to have British owners,

 

Speaking today, Sergeant Major Arthon from the Pattaya City police station, said that the three security guards have since been warned about their conduct but they have not been arrested or charged.

He said: 'The tourist in the video who was attacked has not filed a police report, so we cannot assign an investigating officer. There's no case open until they complain. We've had a look around but can't find them.

'Yes, we're still checking CCTV to see what happened to them. There are rumours that he is in intensive care but we haven't heard anything from hospitals.'

Long article titled "Horrifying moment two British tourists are viciously beaten by gang of bouncers 'after arguing about the bill' at a bar in Thailand" with many photos on the DM website about the disturbing event. A couple of brow raising excerpts:

I hope tomorrow is a better day for white shirt guy (and of course grey shirt guy too). Hope they are able to file police reports to get Thai police off their arse

"won the fight"?

 

This is exactly the stupid, stupid attitude that creates a murder case out of a drunken bar brawl.

 

For both the bouncers as the punters, this evening sure ended differently than they had planned beforehand, so no winners on any side. Albeit I hope the guy getting his head kicked in will recover and have a story to tell, namely how many more years the bouncer will be in prison (no high hopes for either outcome, after seeing the latest articles).

[DonniePeverley]

The guy in the blue shirt really got away with it. He giving it the big one earlier on, even pushing that guy out - but when then it all kicked off he quickly 'sobered up' and suddenly wanted peace.

So strictly speaking it was 3 on 3.

Knuckle dusters were mentioned somewhere else.  I think Reddit.

[ChumpChange]

The police said they haven't heard anything yet from the hospitals about the white shirt guy, only rumors about ICU. But have they heard anything from the morgue?

Knuckle dusters were clearly seen on the video. Fat guy Mr Ball had them on ( same guy that run up kicked the guy in the head)

Khaosod reporting that the bar attempted to make the farang in the white pay another person's bill after he had paid his own. When they tried he refused, became annoyed and verbally abusive. Security arrived and then started fighting and assaulting the punters. 

If I understand this incident, it started by the cassier of the bar who wanted to charge the customer with the bill of another person.
In this case, the prime guilt lie within the cassier(e) of the bar and she should held accountable for everything that happened.

But, this being Thailand, nothing will happen.
The police will act like they are doing something until the case is cooled down and then "accept" a few brown enveloppes with donations to the police funds.
Pity, but it's a foreigner and everybody knows that a Thai willl NEVER hold accountable against a foreigner.

Same cashier was quoted as saying she feared for her life and that the arrival of security guards saved her life. Brit guy never went within a metre of her with a bar in between

'I asked them to pay the bill, but the tourist in the white shirt argued that he had already paid. I explained that the money I was asking for was the payment of someone who had not paid and not his own bill.

'They insulted me and said the bar was trying to scam them, so I called the security over and told them the tourist would not pay his bill.'

Wait she tried to make someone pay for someone elses bill, he refused and she called these guys to attack him ?

 

And she is insulted that she was called a scammer ??

 

I mean what kind of a logic is that ??

 

Well I hope bar enjoys the PR they are getting, the place that wants you to pay the bills of other people or kick your head in if you don't.

A really nasty piece of work.  Hopefully he sees the inside of a cell and never works security again.

They bar in question is being flooded with 1 star reviews on google which contains a lot of metaphors about having your head kicked in and the bar is actually denying it happened even though it's on video and with the public statement of the cashier.

 

They have the gall to say that it's not honorable to spread such information.

 

 

[Pattaya57]

Helicopter Bar getting some well deserved critics on Facebook

 

All girls should start looking for a new bar as this one won't last much longer...

Pattaya.

I liked the place years ago but now, too old and too slow.

Slim 19 year old Uni students looking for a fair remuneration and a little fun and a good feed.

Times change but my disrespect for the dumb Thai male will never diminish.

Notice I did say dumb, not all.

So who's up for a drink in Helicopter Bar anytime soon. Cashier caused the whole fight. I think she deserves some bad tips and unhappy faces coming her way  😉

I hope someone put up this sign outside the bar.

Also in Daily Mail for the pedantic. Much better source than the Pattaya Mail articles written by a soi 6 bar owner who's part of the nightwish group that employs the security thugs.... (or anything from Reddit where you got your info)

 Copy and paste for imminent future use!

 

Why aren't these security guards licensed as in the UK and other countries? Any misbehaviour like that mentioned in the post as in the post should mean loss of licence - hence loss of job!

It's amazing. Living in Thailand but still whining about those unperfect regulations here. If it is so much better in UK I wonder why you're here???😳

In this case: Don't go to those bars and don't get drunk and choose your buddies wisely. 

Not that I agree with the guards, but Thais got a short fuse and dislike drunk farangs who can't speak Thai and can't behave. But everywhere you'll see the bottom level of our society.😵‍💫

Bryan writes articles for Pattaya Mail ?.

Interesting, he owns a competing news publication so that makes no sense.

Who's Bryan? Adam Judd wrote the articles in the Pattaya News. He owns sex & the city on soi 6 which is part of the Nightwish group that employs the security. His bar has same security as helicopter Bar where this happened (so his articles are probably less credible than reddit?)
