Thai Music Star Suffers Knife Wound at Bangkok Gas Station Incident
The 21-year-old suspect, hailing from Samut Songkhram province, was apprehended by police at a petrol station on Ramkhamhaeng Soi 76 in the Hua Mak area of Bangkok[3][4]. This arrest followed a knife attack on Thai singer Palitchoke Ayanaputra, which took place in the early hours of Sunday around 1:30am[1][2].
The confrontation between the two individuals led to the attack, and the suspect admitted to stabbing the singer during questioning[5][6]. A 20-centimeter knife believed to be the weapon used in the assault was recovered by police[1][2].
At the scene, the victim was found with a deep knife wound under his chin and was bleeding heavily[7]. Rescue volunteers provided immediate first aid, and the victim was transported to Kasemrad Hospital for further treatment[8][9].
Officers from Hua Mak Police Station and volunteers from the Siam Ruam Jai Foundation responded to the emergency call at the petrol station[10].
As the investigation continues, legal proceedings have started[11][12]. The suspect has admitted to the stabbing incident, but he claimed he acted in self-defense[5][6].
