A distraught man inflicted multiple self-inflicted knife wounds on himself in his Pattaya condo on the night of September 1, prompting a swift response from police and rescue workers. Upon arrival, the police found the door locked from the inside. With help from the condo’s management, they forced the door open and discovered 26-year-old Thai-German Kitjapat K, also known as Eddie, inside.
Kitjapat was found sitting with several self-inflicted knife wounds across his body. Despite being covered in blood, he was conscious and walked out to meet the police, showing no signs of severe distress. The scene was grim, with blood splattered around the room and a blood-stained kitchen knife nearby. Rescue workers provided first aid before transporting Kitjapat to Pattaya City Hospital for further treatment.
Relatives disclosed that Kitjapat had a history of mild mental health issues but had never harmed himself before. He had recently returned to Pattaya after living in Germany for about five months. The incident reportedly occurred after an argument with a foreign neighbor about noise from the neighbor’s 5-year-old child. The dispute escalated, leading Kitjapat to lock himself in his room and inflict the injuries.
