[Rimmer]

Just after 4am on Wednesday, Police Lieutenant Colonel Tailert from Dongtan Police Sub-Station located on Jomtien Beach, was called to the office of the Royal Thai Residence Apartments located inside Soi 7 off the Tepprasit Road following a shooting at the location. Police arrived and inspected the considerable damage caused by a total of fifteen 9mm bullets which hit the front windows of the office and caused additional damage inside the office itself. Police spoke with Khun Petch aged 28, the Security Guard at the location, who confirmed seeing 4 men, wearing dark colored clothing who had parked their motorbikes opposite the apartments. After a while the men produced guns and fired in the direction of the office while the Security Guard dived for cover. No explanation from the owners of the apartments for the shooting could be given and the Security Guard also confirmed that he was not in any conflict which could have led to the shooting. Investigations are continuing at this time and for now Police are assuming the shooting was a pre-planned event.

Only about two hours after the motorbike taxi driver was shot dead by four people on motorbikes on Sukumvit Road. Seems too coincidental to me.
