'First shot came from victim's car'
The team looking into the road-rage shooting in Nakhon Ratchasima's Pak Chong district on August 20, in which Uthai Thani MP Chada Thaiseth's son Farut was killed, concluded yesterday that the first shot was fired from Farut's car.
Following the shooting, 40-year-old Mun Poolsap surrendered to police claiming he shot in self-defence because he had been fired at first. The probe results will be submitted to the public prosecutor tomorrow, Provincial Police Region 3 chief Panu Kerdlarppol said yesterday.
He said Mun will face charges of murdering Farut, possessing a gun and ammunition, carrying a gun and shooting in a public area, while Chada’s nephew Suriya Thaiseth will be charged with attempted murder, carrying a gun and ammunition as well as shooting in a public area.
