French Tourist Says Karaoke Dispute Turned Violent in Chiang Mai Police in Chiang Mai are investigating after a French man said he was assaulted during a dispute over a 30,000 baht bill at a karaoke venue. The man, identified as Kevin, told officers the charge covered eight small beers and service fees, and that the disagreement escalated into physical pushing and pulling. Investigators said the venue later admitted fault, refunded the full amount, and paid an additional 2,500 baht toward medical expenses. Kevin accepted the repayment and prepared to continue his journey to Chon Buri, but the case did not end there. Police said legal action would still move forward, with alleged offences including assault, operating without permission, and selling alcohol outside legal hours.
