Exotic pet trainer attacks South Korean in Pattaya ‘coin-troversy’

[snoop1130]

 

An exotic pet trainer attacked a South Korean man at a night market in Pattaya, accusing the victim of insulting him by throwing money at him during a performance.

 

The South Korean victim, 38 year old Munsu Park, along with his Thai girlfriend and older brother, filed a complaint at Mueang Pattaya Police Station at 2am today, May 30.

 

The physical assault took place at the Runway night market on Pattaya Sai Song Road. Park pointed out that he had lost teeth and his lips were bruised and bloody from the attack.

 

Park’s girlfriend, May, told police that her boyfriend came to Pattaya for the first time and visited the night market on the seventh day of his trip.

 

At the market, Park became interested in an exotic animal show featuring a python and a Siberian eagle owl and began taking a video. The animal trainer, later identified as Bas, immediately approached Park and demanded he stop filming. Park allegedly did not see the sign indicating that payment was required before filming.

 

A tense confrontation unfolded, during which Park allegedly hurled a 100-baht banknote at Bas, provoking Bas to throw away the money.

 

While Park retrieved his money, Bas delivered two kicks to his face, causing Park to collapse. Blood stained his mouth and his teeth were dislodged.

 

Bas was summoned to the police station for questioning, during which he confessed to the physical assault. He asserted that Park’s action of flinging money at him was insulting, prompting his outburst of violence. He acknowledged his wrongdoing and expressed remorse.

 

The police are yet to determine the charges against Bas, but they intend to investigate whether he possesses legal ownership of the exotic animals featured in his show.

Sounds kind dodgy...

What a thin skinned mental patient. I detest these grifters using animals for photos. Saying that, he might have done the Korean guy a favour and get those nasty teeth a makeover.

Get your head kicked in Pattaya, the world's most famous head kicking hub. Come and lose your teeth at the Night Market. Get neutered on Soi 6....

Very dangerous thing to do.   Throwing a 100 baht note at someone could slice them wide open.

The 'exotic pet trainer'would be jailed for cruelty to animals if I had my way.

Why is this? Clearly it is assault with intent to harm.. Why they can not determine this man is a menace to society and violent and attacked someone physically causing harm. Instead they should have charged and arrested the Thai man. If a foreigner had done that he would have been arrested. When will the 2 tiered justice end. Throwing money is an insult to Thai. But it is not violent and does not cause harm and injuries.

another Thai low life head kicker ....      they really are something ...

 Filming in a public place is legal, but as I understand it you must ask someone if they mind being on camera. Having said that it doesn't make what this fragile pathetic Thai did to the Korean guy, I hope he has to pay for medical bills, pain and suffering, and GBH, but TIT, no doubt if it it had been the other way round the Korean would be arrested.

Also what language was the sign in ? 

[brfsa2]

I think the Korean deserved more than what he got. he lucky to have lost only 1 of his teeth.

Well they might have looked better prior to being rearranged by a kick. What is it with these people, is it some Nationwide revenge for the grumpy Swiss guy on the beach steps in Phuket?

[Mr Meeseeks]

Abusing animals for profit. Kicking people in the face.

 

Jail this disgusting wretch.
