An altercation in Bangkok's Nong Khang Phlu district today resulted in an 18-year-old man sustaining minor injuries. The incident unfolded near the entrance of Soi Phetkasem 108 when the victim tripped outside a tea shop and inadvertently uttered an expletive. A group of four teenagers took offence and launched an assault on him.

 

Witnesses reported seeing one of the attackers with a firearm tucked in his waistband, escalating concerns about the severity of the confrontation. Despite the victim's attempts to apologise for the misunderstanding, the group continued their assault before fleeing on a motorcycle towards Phetkasem Road.

 

 

The injured young man was promptly treated at Ratchaphiphat Hospital, and his family has been informed of the incident. Police are now leveraging CCTV footage and analysing motorcycle registrations to identify the assailants, who are believed to be under 18.

 

Police Colonel Thachaphon Nimmano of the Nong Khang Phlu Police Station is leading the investigation, aiming to gather further evidence for potential legal proceedings. The community hopes for a swift resolution to this unsettling episode.
