britmaveric Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Multiple shooting at Karaoke Bar over just 60 Baht. Police Colonel Somnook, the Chief of Pattaya Police was one of many officers to respond to a multiple shooting which had taken place in Jomtien. The incident occurred at the Iw Karaoke Bar located in Soi Chayapoon off the Tepprasit Road. A total of 5 people, 1 man and 4 women were taken to the Pattaya Memorial Hospital for treatment. The male victim, Khun Boonrueng aged 45 who is the owner of the bar was admitted in a critical condition and we understand that he is now in Intensive Care where he remains gravely ill. The other female victims received only minor injuries. The shooter was arrested at the scene by Police. He was named as Khun Wana aged 50 and was taken to Pattaya Police Station along with the weapon allegedly used in the attack. Also at the station was a staff member from the karaoke Bar who explained that the shooter was presented with a bill of 280 Baht as he was preparing to leave the bar. The suspect had only 220 Baht on him and informed the staff member that he would pay the extra 60 Baht next time. He was then approached by the bar owner who became angry, and according to the suspect, slapped his face. At this point the suspect produced the gun and used up an entire magazine of bullets as he shot at everyone in the vicinity including the bar owner who is currently fighting for his life. Khun Wana was charged with attempted murder which may be elevated to murder if the bar owner passes away, and a number of other firearms offences. -Pattaya City News Saturday 30th September 2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
