Two Hotel workers injured in Jomtien Shooting

PATTAYA: -- Two Hotel workers who were on their way to Pattaya for a night out were injured following a shooting incident on the Sukhumvit Road in front of the Tesco-Lotus Store in Jomtien. The incident occurred in the early hours of Friday and involved three workers from the Ambassador City Hotel who travelled to Pattaya on one motorbike. On their way down to Pattaya they stopped in front of Macro’s to relieve themselves. They then continued their journey and as they reached the traffic lights outside Tesco-Lotus, only meters away from a Police Box, the men heard a loud noise and realized they had been shot at. The single bullet passed through one of the passengers on the bike and struck the shoulder of the second passenger. They noticed a White car with a black bonnet, make and model unknown, driving off at speed in the direction of Sattahip. It is also thought two men on a further bike were also part of the gang involved in the shooting. Police will check security cameras positioned on the main road but for now the shooter remains at large.

any white car with a black bonnet is bad news

it shows the owners very bad taste

its the vehicular equivalent of black stockings and white shoes..........

I think white hose and black shoes would be a better analogy....

I've often thought that people who relieve themselves at the side of the road in full view of every passer by should indeed be shot!! Go find a bush to hide behind you manky <deleted>!!

"they stopped in front of Macro’s to relieve themselves"

Appalling! "Makro" is spelt with a "k".

I'll bet it was an argument between the car and the other scooter...maybe it was just an accident these guys got hit. Stray bullet?

Yes, hope they have a speedy recovery. Not a good way to start off your night!
