Authorities are urgently searching for a suspect, believed to be a Myanmar national, who fled after attacking a Thai woman and leaving her with a severe neck injury.

 

The incident occurred at 16:05 on November 28 at a residential building on Soi Welcome in Jomtien, Pattaya, Nong

Prue. Pol. Lt. Phuttharak Sonkamhan, Deputy Inspector of the Pattaya City Police Station, received the report and dispatched police officers and rescue personnel from Sawang Boriboon Thammasathan Foundation to the scene.

 

Police cordoned off Room 43 on the 4th floor of the building to prevent unauthorised access. The victim, a Thai woman aged between 30 and 40, sustained a deep slash wound to her neck and was covered in blood. Rescue teams had already transported her to the hospital for emergency treatment, by the time police arrived.
 

The attacker fled the scene before authorities arrived. Nearby residents reported hearing the victim's cries for help but were unaware of the exact nature of the incident. They also noticed a man, described as a foreigner, running out of the building. This prompted them to contact the police, who quickly responded to assist the injured woman.

 

Pol. Lt. Phuttharak Sonkamhan inspected the crime scene and coordinated with an investigative team to track down the suspect. The cause of the attack remains unknown, and police are awaiting the victim's recovery to obtain her statement and gather more information to proceed with the case.

 

Authorities continue to investigate and search for the suspect, while the victim remains in a critical condition.

How does one discern a Burmese person, from say a Thai person, running away? 

We  seem to be getting a lot of reports of violent behavior of what I presume are migrant workers.

I thought perhaps it more to do with the fact that they were running, Thais rarely do!
