PHUKET:-- One man was shot during a police chase after the man and an accomplice allegedly carried out a gun threat on residents in Chalong this morning (Aug 30).
 

Chalong Police were alerted at 8:20am that two armed men had allegedly threatened residents with a gun in Soi Palai in Chalong. It was reported that the men were heading towards Chao Fa East Rd in a bronze Toyota with the licence plate number 3508.

 

Sgt Maj Suwit Chooden from the Chalong Police said that he heard about the incident on the police radio and went to investigate with fellow officers. When they arrived they came across a vehicle matching the description given by residents, and attempted to stop them.

 

“The driver refused to stop and shot at us, but luckily no one was hurt. We called for backup and followed them," he told The Phuket News.

 

“The suspects sped along Chao Fa East Rd and later turned into Moo Baan Tinawut, where they got stuck in traffic.

 

“The suspects dumped their vehicle at the side of the road and one of them shot at us again but missed,” Sgt Maj Suwit said.
