cuddleypete Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Truck Driver fatally shot in suspected road-rage incident Just after 3am on Saturday, Police Colonel Nopadon, the Chief of Chonburi District Police responded to a call relating to a suspected fatal shooting on the Pattaya-Chonburi Bypass Road. A truck driver who was driving as part of a three truck convoy was fatally shot in the head following what is thought to be a road rage incident. The truck came to a halt following the shooting and the Police were called to inspect the body of Khun Worawoot aged 39 who works for a haulage company from Samut Prakan Province. The other two drivers in the convoy remained at the scene and explained to Police that a Bronze Isuzu Pick-up had pulled up beside the cab of the lead truck which was being driven by the victim. Words were seen to be exchanged and then the driver produced a gun and shot at the victim and then drove off. Police suspect the shooting was not pre-planned and believe that the truck was involved in a near accident moments earlier with the pick-up. Police are investigating. http://www.pattayaone.net/news/2009/june/news_06_06_52.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 My condolences to the friends, family and co-workers of the victim. I am glad I don't have a gun in my vehicle, because I do feel like shooting drivers at the rate of about 5 per kilometer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUDAS Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I can't see how the driver of the pick-up could actually manage to shot the truck driver. The pick-up is riding much lower than the truck, can't see how he could hit the truck driver across the passenger seat and up into the truck cab. Possibly a passenger in the pick-up?
