Two members of a band playing at a Nong Plalai temple were injured when unknown gunmen opened fire at the concert.
Mongkol Lachae, leader of the Khum-Tui Band, was shot in the arm Nov. 17 at Nong Ket Yai Temple. Lead singer Wuthipong Somta, 22, was hit above the left eye, with the bullet remaining in his skull when medics arrived. Both were taken to Banglamung Hospital for treatment.
Mongkol Lachae, leader of the Khum-Tui Band, was shot in the arm by unknown assailants.
Mongkol said Khum-Tui was booked at the temple for 10 nights through Nov. 23. Two days before their stint began, he said, unknown gunmen had shot inside the temple. He said he believed the latest shootings were connected to that, as he said he didn’t know of any reason someone would shoot at his band while it was on stage.
