PHUKET: -- Six teenagers ganged up on security guard at Villa Market in Cherng Talay last night (August 21) and slashed his head with a knife.

By the time police arrived in answer to an emergency call at 8:30pm, local rescue workers were already patching up 10-centimetre gash in 26-year-old Maetri Yam’men's head and another of similar length on his right arm.

He told officers, “I went to the bathroom and six teenagers came in and ganged up on me. They slashed by head and arm with a knife and then left on motorcycles."

Mr Maetri said he had no idea why the gang had attacked him, adding that he had no quarrels with anyone. After getting details of the attack from him, police sent him to Thalang hospital to be stitched up.

Police alerted checkpoints in the area to be on the lookout for the gang.

They will not take much finding, six teenagers on motorcycles, stand out like sore thumbs!

These brain dead youngsters are a cancer on society.

It is only getting worse, not better and will likely reach a tipping point where it can no longer be controlled, the the tourists will stop coming.

This time they hurt a Thai so they will be in a world of hurt. Smart ones stick to hurting Farangs, no great harm done there.

[belg]

isn't there some special police squad like in colombia to clean up these kind of a-holes ?

[Phuketboy]

What is it with these <removed> slashing and stabbing people. Why is it that there is always a knife or gun involved and it is always a group? Even when there is a incident, it is never one on one, it is always a group of thai's against one other.

Because they are cowards

[Deacon Bell]

Damned teenagers. With their hipping and their hopping and their bipping and their bopping.

Happens in every country.
