In the early hours of January 18, a fatal shooting occurred outside a popular nightclub in Kantharalak district, Sisaket province, following a free concert. The victim, identified only by the nickname "Boon," aged in his 30s and a resident of Ban Non Chomphu in Kantharalak, was the nightclub's head security guard. The alleged shooter, known as "Joe" is believed to be in his 20s and also a resident of Kantharalak.

 

Eyewitnesses reported that the incident unfolded around 02:00, after the concert had ended. A group of youths became involved in a heated altercation outside the venue. The victim intervened in an attempt to break up the fight but was struck on the head with a bottle by the suspect. A physical struggle ensued before the suspect drew a firearm and fired three shots at the victim. One of the bullets fatally struck his heart.

 

Friends of the victim attempted to administer CPR before rushing him to the hospital, but he was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

 

Local police have launched a manhunt for the suspect, who fled the scene and remains at large. Authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward as the investigation into this incident continues.
