Group of Teenagers Assaulted with Knives on Pattaya Beach, Two Teens Injured
A birthday celebration at Pattaya Beach turned violent when a group of local teenagers armed with knives attacked two young teens, leaving one of them severely injured. The victims were only 17-years-old.
Pattaya Police Station was alerted to an assault involving knives at Pattaya Beach, between Soi 10 and 11, Nongprue sub-district, Banglamung district, Chonburi province, at 5 AM this morning, August 4th, 2024. Authorities swiftly responded to the scene, along with rescue personnel from the Sawang Boriboon Thammasathan Foundation.
At the beach, authorities found a group of over ten young men and women in a state of panic. Two teenagers, whose ages were only 17-years-old, sustained injuries from a knife attack. One had severe cuts to his left arm, while another was slashed on his right arm. Rescue workers provided initial first aid, before transferring them to a local hospital.
The names of the victims were withheld by police due to their young ages. The assailants, described as teenagers aged 16 to 25, had fled on motorcycles before the authorities arrived.
According to the victims, who had traveled from another province to celebrate a birthday at Pattaya Beach, the attackers approached them aggressively, asking if anyone had insulted them and looked at them the wrong way. Despite the victims’ apology, the attackers pulled out their knives and attacked the victims. The injured teens were unable to escape in time and were cut while fleeing.
Pattaya Police are searching for the suspects based on their descriptions from the victims and CCTV footage in nearby areas.
