Two British tourists were brutally beaten by a trio of furious
bouncers outside a bar in Thailand last week
after a disagreement over the bill saw tensions spill over and lead to a brawl in the street.
The Brits had been drinking alongside several escorts at the notorious Soi 6 road in red-light city Pattaya on Friday evening when they allegedly began arguing over
the bill with staff.
They claimed that the bar had tried to scam them by inflating the receipt, and three security guards
intervened when the tourists began directing their
anger at the barmaid.
After a few minutes of pushing and shoving a
savage fistfight broke out when the guards snapped and attacked
two of the men - one in a grey shirt and one in a white shirt
- dragging them into the street and knocking them both to the
ground.
The guards were seen kicking at the legs and chest of the man in white
- before another bouncer came running in from the side and blasted
him in the head with a full-force kick, immediately knocking
him unconscious.
He was seen lying motionless for minutes after the vicious blow,
with onlookers unable to revive him.

ground after being punted in the side of the head
The victim's condition is not known and police today refused to
give any details of the alleged victim as they scrambled to protect the image of the city,
which relies on tourism.
Footage from another angle showed how his compatriot in the grey shirt was also
briefly knocked unconscious by another bouncer, who kicked him in the
jaw as he tried to stand up after being tackled to the ground.
That bouncer can be seen walking away with a bloody nose.
Speaking today, Sergeant Major Arthon from the Pattaya City police station, said that the three security
guards have since been warned about their conduct but they have not been arrested or charged.
He said: 'The tourist in the video who was attacked has
not filed a police report, so we cannot assign an investigating officer.
There's no case open until they complain. We've had a look around but can't find them.
'Yes, we're still checking CCTV to see what happened to them.
There are rumours that he is in intensive care but we haven't heard anything from
hospitals.'
One of the sex workers from the bar where the incident unfolded said
that the group of three men disputed their drinks bill, which came to around 2,8000 Baht (£60).
Bar hostess Samorn, 38, said that the three men had paid for two escorts to
drink with them.
She said: 'Two of the tourists had paid their bills, but another had not and
changed his seat several times.
'I asked them to pay the bill, but the tourist in the white shirt argued that he had already
paid. I explained that the money I was asking for
was the payment of someone who had not paid and not his own bill.
'They insulted me and said the bar was trying to scam them,
so I called the security over and told them the tourist would not pay his
bill.'
CCTV shows how the bills were settled but the tourist in a white t-shirt then pushed a security guard
and the fight escalated.

Police Colonel Nawin Thirawit, superintendent of Pattaya Police Station, said today
that the bouncers' actions had tarnished the image of Pattaya.
They were invited to the police station and apologised for 'damaging the image of the country'.
The policeman said: 'The security guards should have prevented the incident and reported it to the police.
'Anyone who works in this industry must keep their emotions in check and focus on preventing incidents rather than attacking people.
'Cases like this can damage the reputation of the city and deter tourists
from visiting.'
Helicopter Bar, which is understood to have British owners, did not respond to requests for comment.
Several other bars on the same street are also owned and managed by the company Nightwish Group.
Pattaya emerged as a nightlife destination in the
1960s when Thailand fought alongside the United
States and provided them with land for eight military bases,
allowing the massacre of North Vietnam and the deaths of
two million civilians in the 1950s and 1960s.
In between killing missions, American GIs would have debauched 'rest
and relaxation' leave in the coastal enclave,
leading to a raucous nightlife industry that has endured to
this day.
Thailand received at least $1.7 billion dollars from the US for its support and also profited from the nascent tourism industry serving more than 50,
000 'yanks'.
