Post by buksida »

A young British tourist was found dead with a gunshot wound to the head in an apparent suicide at a shooting range in Thalang district of Phuket on Saturday

Police were alerted to the incident at the Thalang Phuket shooting range at 3.50pm.

There, they found a shirtless caucasian male aged 22 with a British passport, lying on his back on the floor with a pistol near his right hand.

The incident was fully captured by a closed-circuit camera and the video was posted online by some local news websites. Images of the man's passport were also shown to reporters.

Dead at 22 years old, how tragic.

Was it the alleged argument he had with his friend, that caused him to commit suicide? who knows.


Seems he knew his way around guns, if he hit the bullseye every time.

What a waste of a young life.
