If he could do that with a Bren gun that means that he is very, very very old ????  Probably does not need the blindfold anymore ????

Your probable right . that reminds me what my dear mam said : If you can't see it your aloud to feel it.  ????

Maj Gen Pornsak explained that police together with Kosuldharm rescue workers were called to the scene at about 6am.

[ ... ]

Witnesses at the scene told police that Cpl Pornthep was drunk and wanted to enter the Illusion nightclub, but the guard did not let him in as he was carrying a gun. 

Didn't thought that nightclubs on Phuket were open that late; CCTV image shows time as 5:something.

Throw the book at him. Charge him like any other pleb. Convict him, and send a message out to the people of the nation, that the judiciary is serious, and does not take sides. This is just another overly entitled creep. He was denied entrance to a nightclub, and turned around and shot a random person. This is bordering on a heinous crime, and deserves 20-40 years in prison, at a minimum. 

 

Ultimately, Cpl. Pornthep Channarong of the Phuket Provincial Police, is a small man, with stunningly low self esteem, and no estimation of self, who could not handle any sort of rejection, and went to an extreme measure, and took out his lack of fulfillment, his anger, and his frustrations on a life not well lived, on a stranger. He has self revoked the right to breathe oxygen, with this one act, though it is likely his past is not a pretty picture either. Lock him up!

I was having coffee on my balcony about 5:30, about 200-300 meters away, but without a direct view down onto Bangla Rd...  Heard the shots between 5:30 and 5:40. There were a group of 5-6 shots in very rapid succession, followed several seconds later by another 2 shots, and perhaps another few seconds and a final single shot. 

 

Ambulance sirens followed about 10 minutes later.

 

The initial Thai news reports which appeared an hour and a half later said the policeman had been fighting with a falang man before the incident, then brandished the pistol and fired randomly down and into the street, according to my gf, this is apparently when the noodle vendor was hit.

 

It would appear the initial hit was drunken recklessness and willful disregard on the part of the police corporal, but the second go-round (in the CCTV video) certainly appears to be attempted murder.

 

I sincerely hope that justice will be served, but I've been around long enough to doubt that will be the case when the police are involved.

AHH, fighting with a farang before.

Blame the farang.

Unbelievable.

Some do deserve respect, I have been helped by them, But I would never trust them enough to make them my friend, why would a Thai cop want to be a friend to a falang?

Most individuals choose to stay away from the police where ever you may reside in the world . Yet some seem to regard a friend in the police force as a advantage . I prefer to just be polite to them and keep away

Where is your mind at? The commenter was not blaming except to suggest that the police officer had already been in a belligerent state and fighting. I read it as that the officer was combative and looking for trouble

It's my opinion, that many Thai men take the smallest things personal at times.

Surely most noodle vendors know that it is probably a bad idea to make a drunk policeman armed with a gun to lose face.......
