george Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 4 killed, 5 injured in shooting spree in Chanthaburi CHANTABURI: -- A lone gunman said to have mental breakdown after his wife left him shot dead three neighbours and his mother-in-law and injured five others, including two policemen. Police identified the man only as Jakkrit, 35. Police said Jakkrit allegedly shot dead three neihbours while they were drinking and making a lot of noise at 8:40 pm Wednesday Chanthaburi's Soi Dao district. The man then drove his pick-up truck to the house of his wife in another village. Soi Dao district police chief Pol Col Prakan Prachong said the man became angry after he did not find his wife there, so he shot and killed his mother-in-law and injured his father-in-law. Prakan said Jakkrit later fled to a cane plantation and engaged in a gunfight with police at about midnight, injuring two policemen. Police have yet to locate him. -- The Nation 2007-09-20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 This doesn't sound like someone I'd like to run into this evening. He doesn't work for the postal service by any chance does he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 No, don't cordon it off--maybe afraid if the killer doesn't get you the ghosts will--just go home and come back in the morning and then act surprised that he's gone! It's called give up, give in, mai pen rai. There very good at that here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonniebkk Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Khon Thai BBBBBBBBBAAAAAAAAA mak mak Thai papers also had a story yesterday of a farang in Pattaya who tried drown himself in the sea after his GF left him... Personally, have never understood people who put so much emotional capital into any personal relationship and then lose the plod when it goes t$#s-up. Why would anyone invest capital into something as the fickle as another person?? People are the most unstable and changeable of things...invest in a house or a stock or a business but never in people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 The killing of 4 people and injuring of others is a little bit big to get swept under the carpet so quickly. It would be worth following up on as I don't particularly want to find out this guy 'escaped' to my neighborhood! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldcrush Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Another case that makes me wonder about past mental illness or were there any other violent outbursts. The lack of close contact with GPs in Thailand is evident what the outcome can lead to. My sympathys to the families. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
