Chairs and Knives used in vicious vendor foray in South Pattaya
Police called to Pratumnak Hill in the early hours of Thursday, were astounded to find a battle between food vendors had escalated into armed violence which called for the extra assistance of the emergency medical service.
Operating from the forecourt of a convenience store, Khun Anusong, aged 30 had established his seafood stall and begun to trade when Khun Konsang, a 34 year old Kebab seller parked directly in front of the seafood stand, making it invisible to the passing public.
The seafood seller was enraged and after requesting that the kebab stall be moved, only for his request to be denied, he took justice into his own hands and struck the kebab seller with a chair continually until he had inflicted severe head injuries upon his opponent.
The kebab seller located a very long knife, used normally to slice the Kebabs, and used it to stop his assailant from his attack, inflicting injuries on both arms and back of the seafood seller.
Police removed the Kebab seller to the local police station to assist in further enquiries, as the seafood seller was rushed to Banglamung Hospital for medical assistance to his various injuries.
Police are keen to interview him too once the hospital releases him.
