Two boys aged 16 and 17 were shot and seriously injured as they returned to Pattaya from a Car Fair in Laem Chabang. It is thought the initial encounter with the gang of at least 10 men took place on the Sukhumvit Road in South Pattaya where the two victims were set-upon by the opposing gang. They managed to escape on their bikes but only got as far as a PTT Petrol Station on the Tepprasit Road in Jomtien where someone in the opposing gang produced a weapon and fired multiple times in the direction of the two boys who sustained gunshot injuries and were rushed to Hospital. Others in the smaller group claimed the main gang leader of the larger group resides in a village in Soi Neun Plub Wan. This information will be followed up by Police who are also analyzing CCTV images to determine what exactly occurred. The investigation continues.
