An American YouTuber assaulted his Thai girlfriend with a golf club, while his friend asserted it was done for the sake of creating content.
At 2 p.m. on May 1, authorities from Huai Yai Police Station in Chon Buri Province received a distress call regarding a foreign man causing havoc and injuring his partner at a residence in Huai Yai Subdistrict, Bang Lamung District, Chon Buri Province. Police officers, accompanied by rescue personnel, promptly responded to investigate.
Upon arriving at the scene, a townhouse, they encountered a 30-year-old American named Mr. Murphy. He was yelling incoherently, damaging household items, and scattering them throughout the house. Blood stains adorned the walls, while blood-soaked knives, golf clubs, and various other items were strewn about. Mr. Murphy himself bore a severe stomach wound from glass shards, while Miss Khanittha, his girlfriend, sustained bruises and cuts from the golf club assault. Her 16-year-old sister, also injured by the glass, managed to summon help from the maid and friends. The sisters escaped through a window before the authorities arrived
As police officers surrounded the house, the American man barricaded himself in the bathroom. Both his friends and the officers made efforts to persuade him to come out for medical attention for his wounds before being transferred to the hospital. Miss Khanittha recounted that she was asleep when she heard the sound of breaking glass and falling objects. Upon investigation, she discovered her boyfriend shouting incoherently, blood staining his body. He then assaulted her with a golf club, prompting her to seek refuge in her sister’s room. She expressed confusion over the motive behind his actions.
Disturbingly, a friend of Mr. Murphy asserted that the YouTuber, boasting over 2.4 million subscribers on his channel, didn’t actually harm his girlfriend, suggesting the incident was merely staged for content creation. The police are currently conducting further investigation into the matter.
