Headteacher Shot by Husband in Attempted Murder-Suicide in Buriram
Picture from responders and captured from CCTV. A 52-year-old headteacher was critically wounded after being shot in the head by her husband, who then turned the gun on himself, in an incident in Buriram Province. The shooting took place on the morning of 19 February in Ban Khu Khat, Khu Mueang District, with eyewitnesses reporting hearing gunshots and a car horn blaring before the attack. At 09:30, police officers from Khu Mueang Police Station and emergency responders arrived at the scene to find a silver Isuzu pickup truck parked on the roadside. Inside, Mrs. Nahathai, a school principal in Lam Thamenchai District, Nakhon Ratchasima, was found slumped over the steering wheel, suffering from a gunshot wound to the back of her head, with the bullet exiting through the side of her mouth. She was still breathing and was rushed to Khu Mueang Hospital in critical condition. On the front passenger seat, officers discovered the body of Mr. Somsak 46, the victim’s husband, who had sustained a fatal gunshot wound to the right temple. Spent shell casings were found inside the vehicle, and a bullet had also struck a nearby house. CCTV footage from a nearby home captured the couple’s vehicle sounding its horn continuously as it drove through the village before stopping. Moments later, two gunshots rang out. A 71-year-old retired police officer, who witnessed the incident, reported that Mr. Somsak lowered the car window and said, “She wants to die,” before immediately shooting his wife. He then closed the window and, moments later, shot himself. It is believed that Mrs. Nahathai may have honked the horn to attract attention before she was shot. The victim’s elder brother, Mr. Somphan (60), revealed that the couple had been married for years but had no children. His sister worked as a school principal, while Mr. Somsak ran a grilled pork skewer business. He stated that his brother-in-law was known to be highly jealous, especially when teachers from her school messaged her late at night. Although she repeatedly reassured him that there was nothing inappropriate, his suspicions persisted. Additionally, Mr. Somsak had been battling colon cancer for over five years, and his deteriorating health may have contributed to his emotional distress, ultimately leading to this tragic outcome. Police continue to investigate the case, but all evidence suggests that the incident was an attempted murder-suicide motivated by jealousy and personal struggles. -- 2025-02-20 -

Thai PM Assures Locals: No Israeli Takeover in Pai District - video
Wiki says the population of Pai is around 2,100 folks. Seems to me there's a reason why right now there's 3,000 Jewish folks there (if that's true). I wondered if there is a specific reason and what that reason might be. Just normal curiosity. -

Minibus Explodes in Chonburi: Driver Escapes as Flames Consume Vehicle
Pictures from responders. A dramatic explosion and fire consumed a minibus on the night of 18 February, leaving only charred remains and a stunned driver. The vehicle, recently repaired and meant for transporting factory workers, erupted in flames shortly after leaving the garage, fortunately with no passengers on board at the time. The incident occurred around 21:30 on Route 331, near the “Khao Ruea Taek” curve in Khlong Kiew subdistrict, Ban Bueng district, Chonburi province. Emergency responders from Khlong Kiew Police Station, along with firefighters and rescue teams from the Si Thammasamakhom Foundation, rushed to the scene, where they found the minibus engulfed in flames. Firefighters battled the blaze for approximately 30 minutes before bringing it under control, but the vehicle was utterly destroyed. The driver, known as “Uncle Lek,” aged 60, was the sole occupant of the minibus and suffered only minor injuries. He declined hospital treatment after the ordeal. “I had just collected the minibus from the repair shop and was driving it back for its usual worker transport duties,” Uncle Lek recounted. “Suddenly, I heard a loud explosion from the rear. I had no idea what caused it until I smelled something burning and saw flames spreading rapidly. I stopped the vehicle and ran for my life. Before I knew it, the entire bus was ablaze.” Local police are now working alongside forensic investigators from Region 2 to determine the cause of the explosion. Initial investigations are focusing on a potential leak in the gas fuel system, which may have triggered the catastrophic event. Authorities will examine the burnt remains of the vehicle and collect evidence to establish whether mechanical failure, electrical faults, or other factors contributed to the fire. Witnesses at the scene reported seeing flames leaping from the engine compartment, indicating a possible malfunction that led to the explosion. “It all happened so fast. One minute we were minding our own business, and the next, there was this massive explosion,” said a local resident who saw the flames from a distance. -- 2025-02-20 -
