Man Dies After Shooting Himself In Testicles
By Khaosod English

BANGKOK: -- A gambler in Prachinburi province died after accidentally discharging his handgun into his testicles, police said.

According to the police, officers received reports of the incident at around 02.00 on 7 April. The police later arrived at a residence in Hua Wah subdistrict to find the dead body of Mr. Kittisak Krusorn, 27, on his front porch, with pool of blood trailing from his bedroom where police found one handgun and one bullet case.

The police also found and confiscated a set of instrument for "Hi-Lo" gambling.

Mr. Kittisak's tesicles were punctured by the bullet, police added.

Mr. Kittisak's relatives told police he was hosting a round of "Hi-Lo" with his friends in a funeral at a local temple. Shortly after Mr. Kittisak returned to his bedroom, his relatives said, there was a loud bang of gunshot and Mr. Kittisak later crawled out to front porch, crying for help. However, the man died before any help could arrive.

Police suspect that Mr. Kittisak might have accidentally fired his weapon as he took the handgun out from the holster on his front belt.

"Mr. Kittisak's tesicles were punctured by the bullet, police added."

Really that was a surprise , will make a note of that just in case,

[steelepulse]

Dumbass!

[GuestHouse]

The assumption is that the gunshot wound was self inflicted - gambling debts need to be paid !

[Wiggy]

I know almost nothing about guns, but that one looks decidedly home-made. If people are able to make them themselves then there's not much hope.

[irishsmile]

Wow! The boys are truly out of the barracks now.... Period. Poor sod .

[hanno]

It does indeed look homemade and thus no safety. Scary though that, even with one less, there are thousands of Thais walking around with these things in public.

[p_brownstone]

Hey stupid.

This may have helped.

It's obviously a Home-made - locally-made pistol and therefore would have no Safety.

It also looks as though it takes a single Shotgun cartridge, which would probably obliterate the genitalia rather than simply "puncture" them.

nobody dies from a shot to testicles, unless the bullet entered through testicles and lodged in the femoral aorta, abdomen, ribcage.

[JeremyBowskill]

was he going commando?

[kurnell]

Perhaps he was trying to gamble with his family jewels, and this was his way of extracting them??

[GeckosDiving]

He must have lost a lot of money and decided to BLOW HIS BRAINS OUT or off

[monkeycountry]

Som Nam Na

Now if all the other morons running around with guns would just do the same, then maybe the rest of us would be safer!

[dwcrist]

Let this be a lesson. Take care of your kitty-sack.
