Pattaya —
Local residents in Pattaya are calling for action from police after repeated violent clashes between students from two local schools have left the community in fear.
Local residents in Pattaya’s Soi Nern Plubwan lodged complaints to police following a series of violent clashes between middle school students from a private school and a government school, both located in the same alley.
The residents provided video clips to the police, which show the students engaging in brawls using knives, sticks, and other weapons. The fights typically occurred after school hours, and eyewitnesses also reported seeing some teenagers, who might not be students, join the altercations as well. These teenagers were seen brandishing firearms to intimidate the opposing group, posing fear in the community.
The residents urgently call on relevant law enforcement authorities to address this issue as it is causing great distress in the community.
