Thug in security guard attack goes to police – says sorry for going over the top

The ringleader of a group of three men caught on CCTV mercilessly kicking a security guard in the head has given himself up to Ratanathibet, Nonthaburi police.

Wisanu (Tor) Thappheung, 28, admitted attacking 42 year old guard Jetsada outside the Ua-Athorn housing estate on Saturday.

He has been charged with committing a dangerous assault. A warrant had been issued for his arrest on Tuesday, Thai Rath reported.

He was seen repeatedly kicking the security guard in the head as he lay helpless on the ground. The guard had earlier asked him to stop revving his engine.

Wisanu told police that he got angry alleging that the guard used bad language to him. So he decided to go and get two mates in the estate and emerged to begin the three on one attack.

He apologized to the victim and said sorry for being excessive.

Thai Rath reporters went to Phra Nang Klao hospital where Jetsada is recovering and spoke to Dr Suriya Piyapadungkit who is in charge of his care.

Dr Suriya said that Jetsada’s condition has improved ad he can now help himself though there is still concern over the condition of his eyes.

He said there is no blood on the brain and a scan revealed that there are no abnormalities in the brain.

The other two assailants were already in police custody.
