In a shocking incident, a teacher was fatally shot in a broad daylight attack, with bullets piercing his head and chest. The victim's car later veered off the road and into roadside bushes.

 

At approximately 14:30 on January 18, Pol. Lt. Aisawan Pathomsanti, an investigator at Bang Pa-In Police Station, was alerted to a shooting on Highway 3011 in Moo 6, Koh Koet subdistrict, Bang Pa-In district, Ayutthaya province. The victim, identified as Mr. Nak, 60, was found dead inside his grey Honda Accord.

 

The driver's window was fully lowered, and forensic teams recovered four 9mm bullet casings from the scene. The victim sustained four gunshot wounds to the right side of his head and two to his chest.

 

Inside the car, police found the victim's identification card confirming he was a civil servant teacher under the Nonthaburi Primary Education Office, District 1. Fifty metres from the vehicle, two additional 9mm bullet casings were discovered on the road's left lane.

 

A local resident reported hearing several gunshots while at home. Looking outside, they saw the victim's car rolling off the road and a motorbike speeding away. The rider, dressed in a grey short- sleeve shirt and wearing a full-face helmet, was seen heading towards Bang Sai district at high speed. Upon inspection of the vehicle, the resident discovered the driver had been shot and immediately alerted authorities.

 

Preliminary investigations suggest that the victim may have stopped to interact with the suspect, as indicated by the fully lowered driver's window. During the exchange, the assailant fired multiple shots before fleeing the scene on a motorbike. The victim's car subsequently rolled across the road before coming to rest in bushes.

 

Police have since contacted the victim's wife and daughter to assist with the investigation.

 

Authorities are continuing their inquiry to determine the motive behind the attack.

RIP Mr. Nak.

 

Shot six times, so probably not accidental.....

Got to be some history to this... shot six times seems more intentional than a usual road rage incident.

Given his age and job, the first point of the investigation would be what budget(s) does he control and who feels their rice bowl has been smashed?
