Shocking Incident: Ex-Husband Shoots at Car with Ex-Wife and Another Man, Both Injured
A 39-year-old man shot at his ex-wife's car on a Surat Thani road, injuring both the female passenger and male driver before fleeing; police are actively investigating and seeking an arrest warrant.
On April 25, 2025, authorities reported that in the early morning hours of April 24, officers from Surat Thani City Police Station received notification from Surat Thani Hospital of two gunshot victims admitted for treatment. Lieutenant Suwit Makduang and Deputy Inspector Lieutenant Supruek Chanyuenyong, along with investigation teams and related agencies, immediately responded to investigate.
Initial investigation revealed that the two victims were driving a Honda sedan out of a residential area in Khao Tha Petch, heading into Surat Thani city via the Surat Thani-Na Sarn Road, with the male driver at the wheel and the female passenger in the front seat. Near the Kuan Prani area in Makham Tia Subdistrict, Surat Thani's Mueang District, a 39-year-old suspect—the ex-husband of the female victim—drove an unidentified vehicle and cut off their car. He then fired a gun of unknown caliber at the vehicle, striking the male driver on the right side of the waist and the female passenger below the chin. The suspect fled the scene rapidly, while both victims managed to drive themselves to Surat Thani Hospital for immediate treatment.
Both victims remain hospitalized under close medical care. Police investigation units and forensic experts from Center 8 conducted detailed on-site inspection and reviewed nearby CCTV footage to track the suspect's escape route. Authorities are gathering evidence to seek a court warrant for the suspect's arrest and legal prosecution.
Police are actively pursuing the suspect as this violent incident on a public road has caused considerable alarm among residents in the area.
