webfact Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Attempted murder on Pattaya Beach? Chinese tourist in hospital after nearly drowning following fireworks Picture: The Pattaya News Police in Pattaya are investigating after a Cambodian man found his Chinese tourist girlfriend floating in the sea after the fireworks festival on Saturday night. They have not ruled out attempted murder or even a suicide attempt. A Sawang Boriboon rescue team and hospital medics along with police arrived on the scene opposite Soi 13 on Pattaya beach around 2.30 am. As many Thai and foreign tourists looked on CPR was given to Wang Zhaotong, 35, who was then taken to Muang Pattaya Hospital. A Cambodian man was shown on a video in a state of distress. He said that he had come with his girlfriend to attend the fireworks display. After this he went to get his vehicle and return for his Chinese girlfriend. He found her floating in the sea, dragged her out and implored a member of the public to contact the emergency services, he said. Police are unsure what happened. It may have been an attempted murder attempt after a robbery or even a suicide attempt. The victim is under the care of doctors and has been unable to give evidence. More about this as we hear of it. The Pattaya International Fireworks Festival 2019 took place at the resort at the weekend.

If not then maybe they both lived in Cambodia where there are meany thousands of Chinese. His vehicle must have been parked some distance away to go alone, suggesting it was a car. Not poor Cambodian. Maybe they were tourists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushroomdave Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 So the fireworks finished at "2:30 a.m." ???? Or it was quite a long walk back to the car 55555 !!! Something more to this story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soistalker Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Leave your girlfriend on Pattaya beach at 2:30am to go get the car? Sounds reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropposurfer Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 Damn good reason to know CPR in such events. Emploring tourists to help instead of initiating resuscitation (if she’d stopped breathing and was drowned) wasting precious seconds and minutes could be the difference life or death . if TV members don’t know how to do CPR go and do a course ASAP!

Something more to this story. Perhaps. There were 4 sets scheduled but after the second set a thunderstorm blew in and people ran from the Beach and of course the fireworks stopped. I think I heard some start up at 11pm. There was also live music after. It could have been a very long walk to the car, Beach Road was closed to traffic and town was swamped. I doubt parking was easy to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met a really cute Japanese girl with a Cambodian boyfriend in Siem Reap. He ran a Cambodian tour company, she was a waitress in a Tokyo bakery.

True but the story did say regarding the fireworks, "AFTER THIS, he went to get his vehicle" so no mention of staying for music etc. So either there is more to the story or it was written incorrectly. Also, who leaves their gf on the beach "ALONE and anywhere near 2:30 in the morning????".......in Pattaya????? This is why it's fishy!!! (+ they were over well before that time too!)
