Police raided the home of the uncle who helped his nephew flee after an 18-year-old was shot dead in a Chumphon love triangle. On October 28, authorities provided an update on the case where 20-year-old Naraphat allegedly used a handgun to kill 18-year-old Athiwat at a rental house in Soi Bang Po, Moo 6, Chum Kho Subdistrict, Pathio District, Chumphon Province on October 15. The motive was jealousy before the gunman fled by vehicle.
Following the incident, Pathio Police Station and Chumphon Provincial Police investigators worked to track down those who helped the suspect escape, focusing on 36-year-old Siriwich, the suspect's uncle.
