Sawang Boriboon Medics treated many teenagers for gunshot wounds and other injuries and one sixteen-year-old, Mr Worapob Soonthornwong, later died after being shot in the back

 

The injured were taken to Banglamung Hospital for further treatment.

 

One of the youngsters, a friend of the dead lad, said that before the incident ten of them were hanging around at the roundabout, doing nothing much, when they were approached by a gang of twenty youths armed with knives, batons and other weapons.

"The police suspect there is more to the story than this and will investigate further in an attempt to find out who the gang members are."

 

You can't pull the wool over these guys eyes.  Sharpest knives in the box these lads.

I'm staying 50m from there and slept through the excitement.  

10 youths hanging around Dolphin Roundabout at midnight, "doing nothing much".

 

Shooting one by one is an inferior, less efficient way to cull the herd. 

 

Crashing motorbike without a helmet on, is still Numba 1. 

...wow...and they are the future....

Were you pissed or did they use silencers? Just joking, I'm just a bit further from you...

Thai teenagers without a future, nothing new here. 

 

Another shootout news report! 

Good news or bad? I am beginning to get paranoid if I don't get my daily dose of reports of gunfights, slashings, child rapes and murders, school assassinations, street tourist head kicking, ladyboy snatches, jetski scams, tourist bus road deaths, tourist boat "accidents" and discriminate bombings. Thus I fear I could be missing out on something that I can't report back home to the media as good reasons not to come to Thailand.

Are you listening TAT or is Pokemon tourism too important at the moment?

And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

" a gang of twenty youths armed with knives, batons and other weapons."

In the middle of the city, just two hundred meters from pattaya police station!!! And some bonkers claims this is a tropical paradise

pattaya, the Bogota of Asia...

*note to self* if noticing 3 or more youths not doing much near to me get TF out of that area before death starts to occur.....
