A 50-year-old man was brutally shot dead outside a shopping mall in Bueng Sam Phan district, Phetchabun, while waiting to collect his girlfriend from her final shift at a part-time job.

 

The fatal shooting occurred around 19:00 on 1 June. Police from Bueng Sam Phan Station, along with emergency medical staff from Bueng Sam Phan Hospital and rescue workers, rushed to the scene in Moo 4, Bueng Sam Phan subdistrict, following reports of gunfire.

 

Officers arrived to find the victim, Mr. Sathit, lying on his back in a pool of blood next to the door of his white Mazda sedan, registration from Phetchabun. He had sustained three gunshot wounds to the head, reportedly fired with a .45 calibre pistol. Several spent shell casings were recovered from the scene.

CCTV footage captured the harrowing moment: Mr. Sathit, having parked to wait for his girlfriend, was returning to his vehicle when a gunman calmly walked up from behind and fired multiple shots at close range. The shooter then fled to a waiting white Ford four-door pickup truck, parked near a roadside bus shelter on Highway 21 (Saraburi-Lom Sak route), and escaped. The vehicle’s registration remains unknown.

 

A nearby shop owner, who witnessed the incident, described the scene. “I was selling drinks in my shop when I heard gunshots, four of them. My partner and I immediately ducked. I saw a man shooting another right as he was about to get into his car. It was terrifying,” she said. “The victim’s girlfriend worked part-time at the mall. Today was her last day.”

 

Mr. Sathit’s father, who resides in Phu Toei subdistrict, expressed his disbelief. “He was just picking up his girlfriend from work. He was cheerful, kind and never had conflicts with anyone, as far as I know,” he told reporters. When asked if he suspected anyone, he said he had his doubts but declined to speculate at this stage.

 

Police are currently reviewing CCTV footage and appealing for witnesses. The motive behind the attack remains unclear, and a full investigation is underway.
