The shooter – his father Winai Thetkaew, 73 – had fled the scene in an Isuzu pick-up truck.
The victim’s mother Arom said she was awaken by the sound of gunfire downstairs and went to see what was happening. She found her own son lying dead in a pool of blood. The victim was the couple’s youngest child.
The victim and his father were always arguing, she told police. The father scolded him for not having a job while the son damaged property and assaulted his father frequently, said Arom.

After that he got a haircut then went to a local temple to make merit.
Then he went to the pawn shop where the police made the arrest.
He was charged with murder and detained.
