CHA AM:- A 59 year old Norwegian male shot dead his 55 year old friend, a fellow Norwegian, before then shooting himself in the face, following an argument over a game of darts at a restaurant and bar in Cha Am on Thursday evening.

Upon arrival at the scene, police found the men lying in a pool of blood outside the Lek Switzerland Restaurant located on Khlong Thian Road.

The 55 year old victim was found with gunshot wounds to the stomach and the back of the head, whilst the 59 year old was found with a gunshot wound to his right cheek.

A 9mm pistol was also found at the scene.

Both men were rushed to Cha Am hospital, which is also located on Khlong Thian Road, where the 55 year old was later pronounced dead.

According to Pol Lt Col Yutthana Rattanaphan investigating the incident, the two Norwegians were part of a group of four foreigners who had eaten at the restaurant earlier on Thursday.

The two men later began playing darts before an argument followed, where it is believed the 59 year old pulled out the 9mm pistol and shot his friend twice before then turning the gun on himself.

Cha Am is a popular weekend getaway for Thai residents of Bangkok and is also home to a small but ever increasing number of foreign nationals, predominantly made up of German and Scandinavian expats.

Cha Am is located in the province of Phetchaburi and is approximately 25km from Hua Hin.

Wow this is why you need to stay out of bars. People get crazy when they drink. Wonder where he got the gun?

Good point, seems a bit odd for middle aged Norwegians to be packing heat.

Maybe with so many Thais blasting people right and left, ( one of the highest

gun homicide rates in the world) , maybe farangs are starting to pack now

to defend themselves. But sure looks like it went wrong here.

I thought foreigners can't have guns in Thailand?

The person who supplied the gun should face 10 years in prison.

Legally you mean? For all you know it could have been his Mrs gun, assuming he had a Mrs, and she had a gun....

I know of a foreigner that brought his guns over here in a container with the rest of his furniture. Stupid man he will get caught one day.

And these were NOT Thais, dear posters, but Norwegians........over a game of darts............

So you don't forget when you start bashing the Thais on other similar incidents.

May the victim Rests in Peace and the killer rots in jail.

Killer shot himself

Excellent point. So the Norwegian killer, realized he had made an incredible

mistake by shooting his friend, then turns the gun on himself in order to

commit instant justice. A Thai guy would have just done a runner.......

So you see Costas, rationalizing can cut both ways... :-)

Hmmmm...is there a lesson be learned here.....as in ..maybe next time you are in a bar or restaurant and some Norwegian guys arrive then it is high time to clear out...fast??

Cheers
