Man Shot Eight Times in Home Attack Before Daughter
A 43-year-old man was shot eight times in his home in Phitsanulok Province on August 7 after a suspect, believed to be a retired officer with a grudge, opened fire while the victim's wife and daughter were present.
At approximately 9 p.m. on August 7, Phitsanulok City Police received a report of an armed attack. A suspect aged 65-70, wearing a black shirt under denim, shorts, and a brown backpack, arrived on a black Honda Wave motorcycle near a pork barbecue restaurant on Bian Jan Soi, Thung Nam-Makham Tia Road, Moo 6, Hua Ro Subdistrict, Muang District, Phitsanulok Province. He then fired eight shots at Pramesuan, 43, of Moo 7, Khan Chong Subdistrict, Wat Boset District, Phitsanulok, who was watching television with his wife and 7-year-old daughter.
Pramesuan spotted the gunman arriving and immediately fled with his daughter to the back of the shop as the attacker drew his weapon. The suspect pursued them and fired three to four more rounds, while the wife and daughter escaped another direction. The attacker then remained inside the victim's home briefly before fleeing, appearing to be intoxicated.
After the gunman left, Pramesuan emerged and called police immediately. Rescue volunteers arrived and administered first aid to wounds in his right ribcage before transferring him to Bangkok Phitsanulok Hospital. Investigators believe the suspect is a retired police officer with personal grievances against the victim, who had consumed alcohol before carrying out the attack. Security cameras clearly recorded the incident. Police are actively pursuing the suspect for prosecution.
