Police are investigating why an unknown gunman used an assault rifle to spray at Nong Plalai rental home with bullets.

No one was injured in the March 5 incident. The house has been rented for the past four months by clothes retailer Palmy Baryon, 31, and her 25-year-old Thai boyfriend.

Neighbor Bryan Anderson, 46, said he was watching television after midnight with his girlfriend when he heard the shots and ducked to take cover.

Police were informed the next day, and upon inspection were able to collect one unfired bullet and 10 empty bullet casings from the scene.

Investigators said the shooting was not surprising as the house has been a gathering spot for groups of young Thai men during the day. Police still need to interview the renters and review CCTV footage to determine the motive and shooters involved.
