2 men arrested for shooting behind a Pattaya City School–VIDEO

2 men have been arrested for a shooting that took place behind a Pattaya City School in broad daylight on Tuesday.  47-year-old Prathum Saartnak was shot and killed by a single bullet to the head while he was dropping off a school teacher.

Later, police followed an anonymous tip that led them to the suspect’s apartment. After a search warrant was issued, they raided their hideout, but unfortunately, the suspects were not present at the time. But they did collect a handgun and clothing they believe were linked to the shooting.

The Pattaya News reported both suspects were arrested in Chon Buri province’s Bang Saen district early this morning while using an ATM.

Police were able to link the suspects to the murder from a CCTV which captured them fleeing the scene on the same blue Honda PCX motorbike, which they believe was used in the shooting.
