In the early hours of August 20th, 2024, a violent altercation erupted at the Gold Bar Beer in Soi 6 on Pattaya Beach Road, Nongprue sub-district, Banglamung district, Chonburi province.

 

The incident involved an intoxicated foreigner who allegedly assaulted a German man, Mr. Ral Peter Mallon, 60, and his Thai wife, Ms. Pornwin Ramakul, 27.

 

Authorities rushed to the scene after receiving reports of the disturbance at approximately 12:10 AM. Upon arrival, they discovered Mr. Mallon suffering from a significant head injury and Ms. Ramakul with a loose tooth.

 

Both individuals received first aid before being transported to Bangkok Pattaya Hospital for further treatment, reported The Pattaya News.

 

Eyewitness Ms. Kanyarat Wansena, 28, recounted that the foreigner began harassing her and her friends while they were at the bar.

 

The assailant accused them of causing distress to one of his friends, but Ms. Kanyarat denied the accusation and attempted to de-escalate the situation. Despite their efforts, the foreigner became increasingly aggressive.

 

Mr. Mallon intervened in an effort to protect his wife and friends but was allegedly punched by the drunken man, causing him to fall and hit his head on the floor. The fall resulted in a serious head injury that required over nine stitches.

 

Doctors have advised that he remain under observation due to potential brain trauma. The suspect also struck Ms. Ramakul, leading to her dental injury.

 

The suspect, who gave his name as “Michael,” 44, refused to provide further identification details to the authorities. He made offensive gestures at the media and police, raising his middle finger while being photographed.

 

Later, it was revealed that he attempted to settle the matter personally by offering compensation to the victims. However, the police have stated that further legal actions will be considered once the victims have recovered sufficiently.

If you find yourself in an establishment with a clown dressed like that it's a pretty sure bet he isn't the only one that makes poor life choices.

Lock him up for a month, then compensation to the couple, then deport with a lifetime ban.

She was sitting in the bar with female friends at 12.10 AM. It sounds like she was either working, or just happened to be visiting friends very late at night.

 

I do know of situations where a bar girl is working and her Farang husband or boyfriend sits in the bar all night, nursing a beer. Happens when the Farang can't afford to support her.

Threesome? 
A lot of bar girls are highly sexualized after years on the game and vanilla sex with an old guy won’t cut it.
