BugJackBaron Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Violent night. Around midnight there was another shooting - this one just 50m from the gogo bar in Jomtien. Victim on motorbike quite dead with a bullet hole in the head visible. Not sure if the two stories are connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you can't be an "English citizen", but perhaps I am making too much of the choice of words. Edited May 5, 2014 by tigermonkey 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connda Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Lucky, lucky guy. A few millimeters this way or that, a different angle and he would have been disfigured or dead. I hope he got by with just a grazed cheek. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KhunBENQ Posted May 5, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 5, 2014 was shot in the face by a man described as “European” By a European..... Just wondering where this european could have learned the behaviour from? That is not in the story! Witnesses have told police what happened. The honourable Mr. Alexandar refused to speak to the police. Sounds fishy to me. Mafiosi don't talk. This was probably just a warning shot. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But is definitely a "quality tourist". The guys that shot him looked European, therefore we can conclude this is a mafia related incident. The KGB sent a hit an too kill this poor Brit because he may kinda look Russian, or his name sorta, but not really sounds Russian. Okay! Case closed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeavyDrinker Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 What is it with buffoons in Pattaya using weapons 'going native' as it was. I recently saw some tattooed shaven headed, open shirted, amulet wearing prat threaten another bloke with a knuckle duster he had under his bike seat. Thought he was a right gangster that one did. He even turned around the assembled group and said "let this serve as a warning to anyone who wants to talk about me behind my back" when no one there actually knew who the knob was.
