jkzero Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Anyone know any details? It was after an altercation at Freedom bar, the killer was a farang and as far as I'm aware is still on the run. My heart goes out to his family, he was a nice guy and ex soldier who didn't believe in violence.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

American went back to resort, english guy followed him and stabbed him twice. As reported elsewhere. I once saw one of these Muay Thai guys, an Italian guy who was big and tough, head butt a 70 year old man at Freedom bar and broke the old guy's nose. I think some of these guys have roid rage.

metisdead Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 i also just read the report in another news source that we cannot mention here Did the english guy kill him in the hotel? or before he reached the hotel? , That source says that the Englishman caught up with the American at the resort.

Boater Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 That source says that the Englishman caught up with the American at the resort.

steelepulse Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 I was at freedom bar last night and saw the victim when he seemed to be just fine minding his business with a few friends. There were a lot of muay Thai people at freedom the whole night that seemed to be doing a lot of heavy drinking,but that's no excuse for what transpired. RIP.

metisdead Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 so in ' Theory ' if it was at the resort, surly they would have caught the UK guy on CCTV ?

jkzero Posted August 14, 2010 Author Share Posted August 14, 2010 (edited) Shawn - the american guy, wasn't a serious fighter - just a trained muay thai.. I know the guys from his gym (Jaruad) are very sad bout what happened and I imagine his girlfriend is pretty upset too. No one I've spoken to from Rawai gym seems to know anything about the perp.

amyb Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 seriously so sad....killed him for what? because maybe he was stronger? pointless.

Eazy-Going Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Too right, this 'scum' should not be allowed to walk the streets, justice must be served. If you know who it is report the guy, he could do it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you called the police ? i do not know the guy personaly i got this info from danny avison who used to be co owner of rawai muay thai but now he owns promthep muay thai . he said when he woke up for his morning run around 5:00 the police had the street in front of promthep locked down and even stopped some muay thai students jogging to ask them questions . so im sure danny gave the police as much info on the guy as he could Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimi007 Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 My condolences to Mr. Longfellow's family. Mr. Lee seems to be a punk. He also committed what appears to be a premeditated murder over losing in a brawl he most likely started. I hope he is caught soon and prosecuted to the full extent of the law! Why isn't there more news , pictures and rewards in this case as there were in some others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
