Police hunt for men behind Sunday shooting

The police have launched a manhunt for two of the four suspects who were allegedly involved in the shooting down of a 30yearold man in front of the Chinese embassy in Bangkok.

Pol Colonel Kailert Buakaew, deputy commander of Bangkok Metropolitan Police Division 1, said yesterday that his division had collected related evidence and had enough witnesses to ask the court to issue arrest warrants for the four suspects who allegedly killed Wuttichai KaeOcha on Sunday.
The police have closed circuit camera clips showing four young men riding into the area on two motorcycles and one of them shooting Wutthichai before riding off. Police believe two of the suspects are 20 years old, while the other two – a 16yearold and an 18yearold – have already surrendered.
Kailert said Wutthichai was attending a birthday party with 20 of his friends, when they ended up quarrelling with the four suspects.
