Man Shot Dead in Confrontation with Local Youths in Udon Thani

[Georgealbert]

 

 

A violent incident occurred late night on October 10, in Ban Khok Subdistrict, Sangkaom District, Udon Thani Province, leaving a 42-year-old man dead after a fatal altercation with a group of local youths.

 

The incident took place in Village 10, where the victim reportedly got into a heated argument over the setting off of firecrackers, with the group. Tensions escalated, resulting in the fatal attack. Authorities from the Sangkaom Police Station quickly launched an investigation and were able to track down and arrest the suspect, a 19 year old from the same subdistrict. The weapon used in the attack was also recovered by the police, hidden under the seat of his motorcycle.

 

 

Police believe the dispute may have been the result of ongoing tensions between the victim and the youths. The exact motives behind the altercation are still under investigation, but the teenager claimed he used the gun in self defence as the victim had threatened him with a stick. The youth told police he had bought the gun online for 32000 baht.

 

Investigations are ongoing as authorities work to bring clarity to the situation and ensure justice is served.

So where did this hooligan get the 32000 baht from to pay for the gun? 

 

That ain't chump change based on minimum daily rate of pay (400 baht)

The gun was justified... 

 

   It wasn't an ordinary stick, this one was pointed!
