Two Chinese men suffered injuries after they fought for the hand of a Thai woman outside her condo in the central province of Prachin Buri on April 13.

Srimahapho Police Station officers were called to a stabbing incident outside a room on the second floor of the condominium in Srimahapho district of Prachin Buri at about 1.30am on that day. They discovered blood strains along the hallway and outside the woman’s room.

One of the injured Chinese men, whose identity was not disclosed, was taken to Kasemrad Prachin Buri Hospital before the police arrived. He had five stab wounds to his back and lost a lot of blood. The other Chinese man, Ku Yioiang, reportedly fled the scene after the altercation.

Police reported that the two Chinese men engaged in a stabbing frenzy due to jealousy. The unidentified Chinese man called his Thai girlfriend, who lived in the condominium, but Ku answered the phone.

During the heated argument over the phone, Ku challenged the other Chinese man to meet outside the Thai woman’s room. When the unidentified Chinese man arrived, Ku allegedly stabbed him multiple times in the back and then fled.

The Thai woman’s neighbour told police that he heard people arguing outside his room but did not check until the woman knocked on his door and asked for help.

He found the injured Chinese man sitting in a pool of blood outside and helped the woman call the hospital.

Ku also sustained injuries during the altercation but did not get far. He sought treatment at Kasemrad Prachin Buri Hospital for a five-centimetre cut wound on his right hand.

Medical workers provided him with treatment and later sent him to the police for further questioning. He admitted to stabbing the other Chinese man and confessed that he abandoned the knife used in the crime near the hospital.

As of now, no charges have been filed against any parties involved.
