A fatal altercation occurred in Bangkok, Thailand, involving Chinese and Myanmar workers. A 39-year-old Chinese construction manager was killed with steel rods by four Myanmar workers after a dispute over unpaid wages. Another 49-year-old Chinese man was injured in the scuffle. The four Myanmar workers, two couples, fled with about 50,000 Thai baht (approximately HK$11,600) after the incident. The construction site where the incident took place is in the Lat Bon district of Bangkok. The four Myanmar workers, due to their failure to give notice of their resignation, were refused payment by the construction manager. During the ensuing argument, two of the Myanmar workers attacked the construction manager with steel rods, causing severe head injuries and bleeding from the mouth and nose, from which he died despite medical efforts. Another Chinese man suffered head and back injuries and was hospitalised. The four Myanmar workers, who escaped with the money, were apprehended by police. Police have identified one of the suspects as a 25-year-old Myanmar man and are using CCTV footage to track their escape route.
