Chon Buri driver allegedly threatens man with gun over road accident

A driver in Sri Racha district of Chon Buri allegedly threatened another driver with a gun, and physically attacked him, over a minor car accident earlier this week. The alleged victim, 40 year old truckdriver Mongkol Kladngam, told Thai media he got into a minor accident while he was delivering goods.

Mongkol said he planned to negotiate with the driver in the other car, but the driver was enraged, pulled out a gun, and smacked him in the face several times. CCTV footage shows the driver step out of his car to look at the damage, before he gets back inside his car and comes out again with a gun.

A group of 3 workers cautiously walks toward the driver, and one of them, Mongkol, tries to speak to him. The driver holds the gun in one hand, and smacks Mongkol with the other. Pushing and shoving continues between the 2 parties as the workers try to apologise.
