Rescue workers rumble

Four Poh Teck Tung Foundation workers were injured after "Siam Ruamjai" rescue workers reportedly opened fire on them on Wednesday night at a gas station on Ekkachai Road in Bangkok's Bang Bon district, police said yesterday.



The Foundation's Prapan Lomchan, 33, sustained an eye wound; Apirak Rakjaeng was shot in the stomach; Anek Saetho, 39, had gun wounds to the neck and leg; and Jeerasak Feungsanthia a knife wound in his arm.

Nattapong Suwannarat claimed that a Siam Ruamjai supervisor gave his men the order to "get them all".

Nattapong said the two groups had agreed on separate territories to assist accident victims, but Siam Ruamjai had begun stealing the Foundation's jobs.

Pol Maj Gen Sakkachat Kittikajorn said that after dealing with the attack, police would call in rescue foundation chiefs for talks.

The trouble follows an incident between the same groups on September 27, near Soi Ramkhamhaeng 60 in Bang Kapi district, which left two injured and five trucks damaged.
