Grenade attack on South Pattaya house reported to Pattaya Police

PATTAYA:--On Thursday Night a 33 year old man reported a possible grenade attack on his house located in the Pratamnuk Hill area.

Khun Pacharapon, who lives in Soi 6 off the Pratamnuk Road, told Police that he thinks he knows who conducted the attack, which damaged his motorbike parked at the front of his house.

Last week, he agreed to lend the sum of 7,000 Baht to a man, whose name was withheld, in exchange for 2 motorbikes which were given to Khun Pacharpon as guarantee of payment and would be returned as soon as the money was repaid to him.

The man asked for one of the bikes to be returned which Khun Pacharapon agreed to. The next day, the man asked for the second bike to be returned but the request was denied until the 7,000 Baht was paid in full.

Anyone who thinks Tland is not getting more dangerous by the day is nuts. Case in point.

I must be nuts. Although I'm no fan of juntas, life here is safer than it was.

Who lends money in Thailand unless they are a loan shark?

Is this Progress ???

Used to be a few bashings, then a few stabbings, then a few Shootings NOW we have got Grenades.

Are the Crips and Bloods Training the Locals ???

Or is this just Self Defence goods being used Incorrectly ??

Just an Observation. I am a little sad about all the recent Bloody Violence though.

Its getting beyond a joke now...this story could've been alot worse with some inocent person walking by. LOS is already 10% down on tourist's, this certainly not helping to boost tourisim.

May or may not be true or maybe more incidents are being reported and re-published here, but once again implying that this is unique to Thailand is ridiculous as recent threads on TV (and news reports elsewhere) prove:

Case in point

FBI sees rise in US mass shootings

A grenade would cost at least a few thousand baht. It's hardly economically viable for a 7k debt. I call BS.

Come up with a new story Khun Pacharapon.

[Heng]

Maybe good for a few points to weaken the Baht further? (knock on foreign currency dep. account).

Actually I am a fan of the "current" military involvement ......

Sure there will still be incidents similar to this.....but these are the kind of people that the "General" is hunting out....

This type of "out of control person" (whatever their problem is)... needs to be brought to justice and under control....here....or anywhere else throughout the world

For the "safety & comfort" of all "good people"

Meh. It was only a single grenade. Could happen anywhere.
