angiud Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Yes, a shooting happened in Haad Rin and a young man from Cactus Bar (I don't know if a DJ) was killed. A tourist was wounded too. I have no other news (I am in Samui) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millalucy18 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Yes, his name was Bao, he wasn't a DJ but a fire performer and controlled the microphone at the beach parties. He was a great guy and I have known him for more than 3 years, since I first went to Thailand. It is a great loss for those of us who consider the Cactus bar team our family. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

millalucy18 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I am afraid I do not know the fine details. It was around 2am on Friday 30th (Thai Time) at the back of the bar by the DJ booth. As far as I am aware the shooter was well known among my other friends there and has now fled with his brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angiud Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Where do you people live? Sadly in Thailand shooting is a daily occurrence, frequently with tragic consequences. In KPG or in Chiang Mai, Phuket or Roi-Et, shooting and killing is part of the local 'culture' and, IMHO, is increasing too (or only more news reported on the media) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guns, drugs, flashy cars/phones/iPads/everything.... Too much too soon, for a society built on face. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
