Soi Bangla Scuffle: Tourist Beaten After Leaving without Paying

A dramatic scene unfolded in the early hours on Phuket's renowned Soi Bangla when a tourist was allegedly attacked by a group of local ladyboys. The incident is said to have been sparked by the tourist leaving a restaurant without settling his bill.

 

Taking place in the bustling Patong area, the altercation began when the tourist attempted to leave the venue without paying. Witnesses reported that the man faced a confrontation from a group of ladyboys who were displeased with his apparent attempt to dodge the bill.

 

The situation quickly escalated into violence, as captured by bystanders on their phones. The tourist, overwhelmed by punches and kicks, struggled to shield himself and retaliated, albeit briefly, only to be overpowered and knocked down to the ground.

 

The scuffle drew the attention of many passersby, creating a substantial crowd that buzzed with a mix of shock and curiosity. The altercation reached its peak before local law enforcement arrived, swiftly working to separate the involved parties and prevent the clash from worsening.

Fortunately, despite the intensity of the exchange, no serious injuries were reported, and neither the tourist nor the ladyboys opted to submit formal complaints against each other. However, Patong police have indicated their preparedness to handle any future legal proceedings should any party decide otherwise.

 

This incident has reignited discussions on safety and public order within Bangla Road, a hotspot in Thailand's nightlife scene frequently visited by tourists. The occurrence underscores the necessity for enhanced security measures to ensure the safety of both locals and visitors, promoting Phuket's image as a welcoming tourist destination.

 

The situation harks back to a similar scenario in Krabi earlier this month, where another tourist made headlines for leaving a restaurant without paying. The man, described as tall with significant tattoos, dined at a well-regarded establishment and made his exit under the guise of using the restroom. CCTV footage from the event circulated online, serving as a warning to businesses about potential dine-and-dashers and urging the public to be vigilant.

 

These incidents highlight a broader challenge faced by Thailand's tourist spots where hospitality and security must be finely balanced. As both local authorities and business owners ponder over solutions, the need for consistent vigilance and respectful conduct by all remains a clear takeaway for maintaining the region's desirable allure, reported The Thaiger.

I hope the tourist learned his lesson

[ignore it]

Hey that's a good idea 

 

Have ladyboys work as bouncers at restaurants.

 

 

[Peterphuket]

It is about time the ladyboys were tamed, but who is going to do it, who is capable of doing it.

[Taboo2]

There is a serious problem regarding the lack of females on that island.  If there were enough tasty treats, no fights.  The horny guys coming to phuket have no experience and this is going to get bad, unless it is fixed.

Gangs of blokes with boobs

Chicks with dicks. Kind of a very dangerous breed 🙂

[loong]

Nice to see them referred to as ladyboys again. I detest the term transgender women!

...does anything good ever happen in that godforsaken place?...🤔

They should start selling tickets for lady boy Vs tourists boxing.

Probably better than the UFC these days .

[ronnie50]

They really need to move all these commercial sex ladyboy workers away from all these places - including Pattaya, Nana plaza and Cowboy - and give them their own clearly demarked area. Then the weirdos that like that kind of thing can go there and stop the ladyboys from bothering or fighting with everyone else.

Hope this is the end of Phuket bars and the katoeys.

Why are they fighting when they could be making sweet love in the Land of Smiles?

Don't they have some deep sea fishing on Phhuket?

[Jone500]

Which nationality or ethnicity tends to speak rudely to locals? Is it the ones who often experience hair loss?
 

[rocksniffer]

Not chicks with dicks. Guys with tits.

There are other ways to let them pay the bill than fighting... surely as Thais are cowardly many against 1

[Thingamabob]

If it's true that the tourist didn't pay his bill I have no sympathy for him.

This way he will remember better to pay his bills.

In every country, football hooligans fight against a few.

'They don't like it up em, sir. They don't like it up em.' There are exceptions I suppose.

First of all, ladyboys are women who just have an extra large clitoris. 

[Hardcastle P]

Do they scratch like real women. 

[rwill]

The tourist was last heard saying, "I'm not paying guys for lady drinks."
