adgroom Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Apparently there was a pretty serious incident near Chalong circle last night. To quote my friend who messaged me he said "Some local guy was chasing another guy with a gun and then he jumped into a pickup truck and tried to get away at full speed. He smashed right into a minivan packed with tourists and a few were killed." I think it happened sometime late last night. Does anyone no anymore about this or can provide a link, I don't really know where I should be looking for Phuket news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donna Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 i would have thought that it would have been reported by now if it did happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adgroom Posted August 28, 2008 Author Share Posted August 28, 2008 Yeh me too. Maybe the story was exaggerated or something. My friend was told by someone else who apparently witnessed it, so I don't know. I guess it will come up if anything happened. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boater Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 If tourists where killed or injured, they will try there best to keep this quite from the media Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ping Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 If tourists were killed or injured, it will be headlines - not the sort of thing Thai authorities can keep from the media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelepulse Posted August 29, 2008 Share Posted August 29, 2008 If it involved a "big boss" or his henchman, then it very well could be kept quiet, especially if a tourist was not involved and it was a turf battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimera Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 If tourists where killed or injured, they will try there best to keep this quite from the media I don't think so, you have to have an organised system to do that ! If it happened it WILL be reported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
