Gay Bartender Pistol-whipped By Drunk Customer

[Rimmer]

Pattaya, 9 October, 2009, [PDN]: A drunken customer, disapproving of the way his whisky was mixed by a gay bar bartender, grabbed a gun and pistol-whipped the victim’s face. Police arrested him while he was preparing to escape.

At 1:00 am, on 9 October, Pol.Lt.Col. Tailert Leupeu, Dongtan Police Investigator, received a report from the bartender of the Ball Hai Beach beer, Mr. Treetep Wiengwisai, [27], from Nakornsawan. Mr. Treetep complained of being assaulted by a dissatisfied customer who had pistol-whipped him, cutting his face, which had been bleeding extensively while he ran to the police station for help.

Mr. Treetep related that he had just been hit by the gun of a customer and the man was about to leave the bar, located only 300 metres away from the police station, and escape in his Mercedes, parked in front of the bar. Through the swift response by the police, the team managed to nab the alleged assailant before he was able to escape.

The man, who was later identified as Mr.Siripong Sirikumsing, [32], was in drunken state. He failed to prevent the police from searching his vehicle, where they found a 9.mm. gun in its holster and 5 bullets. Police kept them as evidence and detained Mr. Sriripong.

The police questioned Mr. Treetep, the victim, who explained that Mr. Siripong had parked his car and walked into the bar, immediately ordering a drink, which he had mixed for him. Mr. Siripong, however ,after tasting the drink, complained that it had been mixed wrongly and he was not enjoying it. Mr. Siripong apparently then demanded an explanation as to why the barmen had not mixed the drink correctly. Mr. Treetep said he had apologized and walked away.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Siripong had then angrily walked out of the bar to his car and had come back with a gun which he pointed at Mr. Treetep’s head, threatening to kill him because he had made a lousy drink ,after which he pistol-whipped him. The whole situation had happened in front of many witnesses in the bar. After that, the Mercedes man paid for his drink and walked out to his car, while the victim ran to the police station.

Mr. Siripong did not give his side of the story, due to his drunkenness, only saying he would leave it to his lawyer to deal with the case. He said the gun belonged to his friend who had left it with him so he could practise his shooting in a shooting range.

He was, however, charged with illegally processing a gun and bullets and carrying them in public. As regards the attack, the charge will be discussed with the victim accordingly.

He was drunk and he was attempting to drive away.

what about drinking and driving too...

Bad day at the office, carries about a loaded gun, going to get his lawyer to sort it out, sounds like a well connected hoodlum.

he failed to prevent the police searching his vehicle?

So was the problem him being gay, what the heck(can't say hel_l) got to do with the story, maybe his parents don't know he's out yet!! The bartender should have made a screwdriver and pocked him in the eye

From the sounds of things he had a hard enough time staying on his feet, let alone concentrating on anything else going on around him.

+1, there is not a single bit of relevance to the bar tender's being gay I guess they just HAD to put it in to get people to click on the link (advertising $$$) in expectation of a saucy story...

Oh, and the gun wielder's car brand seems to have been of some importance, too... ah well, in Thailand it may mean "possibly well enough connected to get away with murder" - just wonder why they didn't name the gun's manufacturer as well?

gay bartenders provide some of the better services than many ladies who prefer to opt for the more lucrative go-go dancing jobs where they can earn big bucks.

had the gay bartender been a female, he too would not stoop so low to want to work at this poorly paid, poorly tipped and often oft-abusive job by drunks.

perhaps the guy is a macho mary who felt his manhood seriously challenged by the gay bartender, no?

go to any well known discos in thailand and notice most of the good looking guys are gay, bi-sexual or whatever?

probably the said drunk is a closet queen with a benz and big bucks thinking in this sex-on-demand land , big bucks entitles one to be able to do evertything with anyone except perhaps with this good looking bartender here?

or perhaps, the drunk is an old client of the bartender who refused now to go with him(the drunk) again because the drunk is too abusive and a real local cheap charlie?
