Pattani police officer tries to kill himself

Police suspect the victim was under work or health-related stress.
Following a report of a shooting in Tambon Sateng at 4pm, police rushed to Siroros Road and found a Honda CRV sedan parked on the shoulder. Pol Colonel Adul Pinaeba-ngo, 53, had already been sent to Yala Hospital.
Pol Corporal Tawan Saikhirin said he was driving Adul and his wife to a doctor’s office. After he pulled over to let Adul’s wife disembark and head for the clinic 50 metres away, Adul, who was still in the car, pulled out his.357 pistol and shot himself in the head once, he said.
Adul might have been under pressure because he worked hard. Tawan added that Adul appeared normal and did not appear to be fighting with his wife.
