Right after midnight on Tuesday, the Pattaya Police Investigating Inspector Pol. Lt. Col. Songkram Pan-iam were summoned to investigate an Attempted Murder, after a tourist was stabbed in the middle of Soi Diana, between Soi Buakhao and Pattaya’s Second Road.
The police, Police Volunteers and the Sawang Boriboon Rescue Team immediately approached the scene, a beer bar area. A tourist, identified as Mr. Robert Hollick, aged 43 from New Zealand, wearing only a pair of sport shorts and some tattoos, was lying unconscious on the floor. The man was covered in blood and barely breathing, as he had been slashed many times upon his neck, hands and arms.
The Sawang Boriboon took Mr. Robert to Pattaya Memorial Hospital immediately, while the police investigated the incident, but the unfortunate man died shortly after.
Many good Samaritans and taxi motorcycle drivers managed to apprehend the couple who committed this crime - Mr. Andy Ringvall, aged 40 from Sweden and his Thai partner Miss Dao Pon-u-sa, aged 26. Both were very drunk.

Miss Dao claimed they have been together for 5 years and just moved to Pattaya from Koh Samui. The deadly duo were drinking in a bar before the incident happened. Miss Dao further alleged that Robert started the argument first, and began attacking Andy. So, Andy pulled out the cooking knife he always carries for protection, and started stabbing Robert to stop his harassment.
The Housekeeper of the Beer Bar, Mrs. Supi-sapa Wetsuwan, aged 47 stated that Robert was a frequent customer of this bar. Andy and Dao were sitting, drinking at the bar, when Robert, who was walking his dog, a Pug, passed them and stopped to offer Andy sex with his dog. That infuriated Andy, who cursed at Robert, and they both began to argue. Nearby people jumped in, and helped to end the argument; then both sides scattered.
While most beaches rely simply on the beauty of their natural
surroundings for their charm, Pattaya Beach, a 4 km crescent-shaped
sandy bay, goes all out to give visitors everything their hearts desire.
On this bustling palm-fringed stretch, are superb hotels, cheap
shopping and market stalls, a huge variety of restaurants.

A while later, Andy and Dao returned to the beer bar, trying to locate Robert, but no one said a word. Meanwhile Robert foolishly walked his dog back past the beer bar. Andy saw him and without hesitating, Andy jumped on Robert and slashed him numerous times. Both Andy and Dao were charged with the murder of Robert, and were taken for legal proceedings.
