Shoot to kill order given in hunt for man who 'shot dead' his father in Lop Buri

Shoot to kill order given in hunt for man who ‘shot dead’ his father

By The Nation

 

Lop Buri police are operating under a shoot to kill order after a manhunt began on Tuesday for a drug addict who allegedly shot dead his father.


The order was given by Lop Buri police chief Maj-General Dissapoj Isarangkul na Ayutthaya.

 

Dissapolj ordered all Lop Buri police stations to hunt for Surachai Chainan, 26, who is believed to be carrying a Glock 17 pistol he allegedly stole from a shooting range in the province and is considered very dangerous.

 

Dissapolj told police to take drastic action if they feel threatened by Surachai - code among police that an extrajudicial killing is an option.

 

At about 3.30pm on Monday, Sergeant Chaiyos Chainan, 54, of the military hardware maintenance unit in Lop Buri, was shot and killed by Surachai at his house in tambon Khao Phra Ngam, Muang Lop Buri district.

 

Police said Surachai is an amphetamine addict who allegedly threatened to kill his family members, prompting his mother, his wife and children to leave the house to stay at a hotel two days before the incident.

 

On Monday, Surachai went to the Por Pibulsongkram shooting range and allegedly stole the Glock 17 pistol with 50 rounds of ammunition, police said.

 

Police contacted Chaiyos and asked him to help arrest Surachai by mixing a strong sedative in his son’s lunch and getting him to eat it.

 

But Surachai refused to eat it and allegedly shot his father once in the face and left the home, police said.

Can't think of any other police force that would think up this (not) brilliant idea !

Suspected patricide severely injured by police

By The Nation

 

A man who allegedly shot and killed his father in Lop Buri was severely injured in a gunfight with police in Sing Buri on Tuesday morning.


The gunfight between officers and Surachai Chainan, 26, happened shortly after the Lop Buri police chief gave a shoot-to-kill order if the suspect resisted arrest.

 

Surachai allegedly stole a pistol from an Army shooting range in Lop Buri and killed his own father, an Army sergeant, on Monday.

 

Police were alerted that Chainan had been spotted at a resort in Sing Buri’s In Buri district at 8am.

 

When police arrived at the resort, the suspect tried to flee on a motorcycle but officers blocked the way from both sides.

 

Police said the suspect was the first to open fire at police, prompting them to return fire. The suspect was shot once in the head, once in the hand and twice in the leg. He was sent to Sing Buri Hospital where he was under close observation.

duterte police in action

Shouldn't the public be given a picture of this druggie murderer running around?  

The problem with shoot to kill orders is that you never know just what the perp knows and who wants him dead the most.

Sorry to disagree, but Duterte's lot shoot better...

Young addict,,,,,,,,, Kills dad......

Police shoot him,,,,,,,, Not much waste as I see it.................

Only one afterthought....... It may have been better to let him 'Rot away' in an overcrowded and sweaty 'Thai Prison' to give him more time to think about his 'miserable life'................

Not as dangerous as those who order extra judicial murder.

His father by the sounds of things, with the rest of his immediate family not too far behind

'Dissapolj told police to take drastic action if they feel threatened by Surachai - code among police that an extrajudicial killing is an option.'     'Code amongst the police'- oh come on, this is a ridiculous statement.

 

Becomes in the next story 'The gunfight between officers and Surachai Chainan, 26, happened shortly after the Lop Buri police chief gave a shoot-to-kill order if the suspect resisted arrest.'

 

Sensationalist journalism at its worst.  What were they supposed to do- present him with a bouquet of flowers?

A bit difficult considering he had just killed his father.

Philippines get an order and follow it, no? Thai police not full - more likely in the old Thaksin times they did. :whistling:

I don't think that's true. In the best parts of the US he would be talked into handing over his gun.

Which US do you live in, is it in a parallel universe, or the one where they shoot unarmed people as they don't have a firearm to hand over?

A deep thinker might imagine that a son will never kill his father and that the scenario put forward lacks credibility and there is more to this story than meets the eye.

So I guess that 'Deep-thinking' then is quite similar to dreaming (fantasizing)..... Yeah... I do that sometimes too...............

When all the events in the OP leads you to believe that the son was an addict and could possibly do anything and he had a gun and was accused of killing the father..... deep thinking will lead to to many 'illusions'...... Don't be 'mislead' by all those modern day movies you been watching......

A deep thinker might also be aware every culture has an abundance of legend about various forms of family violence, often highlighting patricide.

Why? One because it is the most common form of violence most people will experience, far outweighing incidences involving 'random' participants who share no previous history.

The legends often contain moral imperatives as well as providing a 'vent' for people who empathise with various characters.

The same reason for the existence of jokes like: A man holding a baseball bat who sees a mosquito settle on his scrotum realises that mindless violence is not always the best way to resolve difficult personal problems.

Despite all the fairytales and folklore (and the obvious inference such acts have always been common), many people still express shock or horror at news reports of violence by parents against children, or vice-versa.

It's a problem communities share - inexpressible, or taboo, subjects never get a decent analysis or understanding. The possibility for shared commitment to resolve such issues is minimal because of the prohibitions surrounding them.

EDITED to add ---- Actually this was not a post of mine (ABOVE)... It was something I had quoted and replied to.... It was originally posted by Tilacme (just above these posts)...... My reply to it was -----

Sawadeeken Reply to sandemara---- 

This LOOKS like MAYBE the BEST explanation YET.................

Now if I COULD just figure out what you thought you were trying to say.......... (you speak of "folklore" "fairytales" "taboo"......... ?????????)

Is It possible that you could go back and re-read the OP and start again ?????????

While you are re-reading it pay close attention to these 2 paragraphs ---- 

1. Police said Surachai is an amphetamine addict who allegedly threatened to kill his family members, prompting his mother, his wife and children to leave the house to stay at a hotel two days before the incident.

2. On Monday, Surachai went to the Por Pibulsongkram shooting range and allegedly stole the Glock 17 pistol with 50 rounds of ammunition, police said.

AND THEN......... Get back to me please.........

A deep thinker may wonder why :-

 

the son of a police officer, residing with his father, is an amphetamine addict,

 

in a country where police keep a tight rein on who is allowed to make profits on drug dealing, was the son protected perhaps as an authorised dealer,

 

the son, a known drug addict, was able to steal a handgun and 50 rounds from a firing range (allegedly),

 

the police came up with such a hare-brained scheme to retrieve the stolen handgun (if what they say is true),

 

the police then issued a shoot to kill order,

 

the police were at such pains to keep Surachai's mouth shut permanently.

 

If I were you, I would learn to take announcements from this police in this country with more of a circumspect attitude and a fair degree of scepticism. However you may prefer to take things at face value. It is simpler.

In your explanation can you touch on the fact given in the OP that his mom, wife and children left their home to stay in a hotel for 2 previous days????????     Can you explain the 'gun range' reporting him stealing the gun?????

All manufactured by the police/media????????  If they had wanted to 'get-rid' of the dad or son they would have just quietly done so....... Not in a highly public manor as this.......

I am in total agreement about the corruption in the police, army, and government in general however.......
