Jealous adult son stabs, shoots mother’s boyfriend
SONGKHLA - A 29-year-old man stabbed his mother’s new partner at least 10 times before shooting him dead with his own handgun on Sunday night.
A 29-year-old man, Peerapol Phetkaew, surrendered to police after a violent altercation on Monday night in Songkhla. The incident occurred when Winai Hirankul, 53, his mother's 10-year-old boyfriend, sustained multiple stab wounds and was shot and killed with a handgun. The attack took place on Klinprapai Road in Muang district.
Police found Winai lying dead in the street, while Peerapol fled the scene. He turned himself in to the police the next day and handed over the knife and gun he claimed he used in the killing. Winai had recently started carrying a .38 calibre handgun due to his fear of a bad event happening. The two men had a tense relationship with Peerapol fearing his mother would neglect her family responsibilities due to their relationship.
