A beach mat vendor with a bad reputation is running from police after allegedly attacking another man at random on Pattaya Beach.

Chaichana Chemjantuk came to police with a bloody face Jan. 9, claiming he had been minding his own business while drinking on the beach when a local troublemaker smashed him in the head with a piece of wood.

The incident began when the beach mat vendor, known around the beach as Tom, approached Chaichana and, according to the victim, picked a fight. Chaichana didn’t bite and got Tom to leave. But he returned shortly later with the wood and assaulted Chaichana.

Police planned to check CCTVs in the area to locate the mad vendor.
