An incident like this has actually happened! Lukgwang Pojjanee, wife of Danny Sripinyo, has apologized and appealed to people who entered her private property without authorization, requesting time to recover emotionally and asking for understanding.

On May 5, Lukgwang Pojjanee posted about encountering unauthorized visitors in her private property and people attempting to consign items for sale. In her post, she wrote: "I apologize to everyone. Please send encouragement through social media. Lukgwang is not available for visits or conversations right now. I'm asking you to respect this. Awa's house requests to be treated as private property. Please don't drive into the private area without permission. Please understand Lukgwang's feelings. This is a request."

She further clarified in comments that there are plenty of people at home right now, so there's no need to worry. She explained she's currently unavailable to receive guests and chat, except with close family, and cannot accept consignment requests at this time. She is focusing on her emotional well-being and recovery, and will welcome visitors properly once she's stronger. She revealed the reason unauthorized people entered was that family members came to work in the garden and left the gate open, allowing people to enter.

Amidst supportive comments from followers toward Lukgwang and young Awa, many acknowledged this situation was inevitable and warned others against entering private properties without permission, urging people to allow the couple some peace.

Arsenal reached the Champions League final for the first time in 20 years after Bukayo Saka's first-half goal secured a 1-0 win over Atlético Madrid at Emirates Stadium on May 5. The Gunners will face either Paris Saint-Germain or Bayern Mu

5 May Khaosod

Arsenal advanced to the UEFA Champions League final by narrowly defeating Atlético Madrid, with Bukayo Saka becoming the hero by scoring the winning goal in the 2025-26 Champions League semi-final second leg on May 5. Arsenal's Emirates Stadium hosted the Spanish side, after the first leg ended in a 1-1 draw.

In the 44th minute of the first half, Leandro Trossard received the ball on the left side of the penalty area, found space, and shot. The goalkeeper deflected the ball but couldn't clear it far, allowing Saka to rush in and finish into the net, giving Arsenal a 1-0 lead.

In the 51st minute of the second half, Arsenal's defense made a costly mistake, allowing Julián Simeoné to intercept the ball and slip past the goalkeeper. However, Gabriel Magalhães rushed back and made a crucial block just as Simeoné was about to shoot, denying Atlético Madrid an equalizer.

In the 56th minute, Marc Pubill advanced down the right flank and passed to Antoine Griezmann, who entered the right side of the penalty area and attempted a shot, but David Raya made a diving save to deny Atlético Madrid.

In the 66th minute, Arsenal nearly extended their lead when Piero Incarnato came on as a substitute and received the ball on the left before sending a low cross toward the center. Víktor Ojerkes took a shot that narrowly sailed over the crossbar. Arsenal finished the match with a 1-0 victory and a 2-1 aggregate score.

This Champions League final appearance marks only the second in Arsenal's history, following their last final in the 2005-06 season, 20 years ago. They will face the winner of the Paris Saint-Germain versus Bayern Munich semi-final. The final will be held at the Puskás Aréna in Budapest, Hungary on May 30.

Suspected Jealousy Motive: 20-Year-Old Shot Dead, Police Interrogate Suspect Who Denies Allegations

A 20-year-old man was shot dead with a homemade shotgun at a shelter in Trang Province on May 6, with police investigating a suspect over suspected jealousy involving a woman who frequented the location.

5 May Khaosod

On May 6, Deputy Superintendent Nusil Timsil of Muang Trang Police Station received a report of a shooting with a severely injured victim inside a shelter in a hilly area, Village 2, Ban Pho Subdistrict, Muang District, Trang Province. Before police arrived, rescue teams from Wattana Hospital and Ban Pho Municipality rushed the victim to Trang Hospital.

Investigating officers found an off-grid shelter powered by solar panels located on a hillside with a large pool of blood. The victim, identified as Petchpunthsakdi Khamwichi, nicknamed "Leo," age 20, was shot with a homemade 12-gauge shotgun in a point-blank shooting. Approximately 10 pellet wounds scattered across his chest, shoulder, neck, and chin. Doctors attempted emergency resuscitation with chest compressions, but the victim succumbed to his injuries.

Initial investigation led police to call in Surin Chuchart, 57, the victim's stepfather, and Lamyong Teepchanthon, 55, his mother, for questioning. A suspect, a man in his 30s-40s nicknamed "Big" from the same village, was identified as acquainted with the victim. When police approached the suspect's house, he fled into the forest and hills over 200 meters before jumping off a cliff higher than 5 meters. He attempted further escape but was apprehended by officers near an earthen wall.

The suspect was taken to Muang Trang Police Station for DNA testing and gunpowder residue examination. He initially denied involvement, claiming he was indoors during the incident.

The stepfather recounted that he was washing cassava beneath the shelter when he heard a gunshot. The victim, eating upstairs, shouted that he'd been shot before falling onto the stepfather. The stepfather carried the victim down the hill to seek help, believing "Big" was responsible, though it was dark and he heard no voices before the shot.

The stepfather further explained that the suspect and his girlfriend "Fon" had regularly frequented the shelter for years and were close to the victim. Recently, Fon began spending more time there, eventually staying overnight regularly. This caused frequent arguments between the suspect and Fon. Shortly before the incident, Fon came to stay at the shelter. When the suspect learned of this, a heated argument erupted. He told Fon they were breaking up and demanded she leave the village. Days later, Fon returned to the shelter. When the suspect found out, he followed her up, leading to a confrontation where Fon attempted to stab him with a knife while the suspect drew a gun to threaten her before leaving the shelter.

Brutal Murder: 65-Year-Old Taxi Driver Killed in Robbery, Grieving Wife Demands Justice

A 65-year-old taxi driver was found murdered in a rice field near Ayutthaya on May 5 after being robbed; police are investigating the killing as authorities search for suspects in the brutal attack.

5 May Khaosod

On May 6, police in Chang Yai District, Bang Tai, Ayutthaya received reports of a murdered taxi driver found abandoned in a rice field approximately one kilometer from Highway 9. The body of Prasayad Buthong, 65, showed severe head trauma consistent with a robbery-related attack. The taxi was left at the scene with its door open.

Police have begun collecting fingerprints, DNA samples, and other evidence from the vehicle and surrounding area. Investigators learned from family interviews that the victim was carrying a mobile phone, cash of unknown amount, and a bank card with ATM PIN information stored in a plastic bag. The phone reportedly had no screen lock.

The victim typically carried documents, ID card, driver's license, and ATM card in a plastic bag placed in his pants or shirt pocket. A witness reported seeing groups of locals fishing in the area between 3-4 PM on May 4th, before heavy rain that evening. The body was discovered by fishermen the following evening on May 5th.

The crime scene is located at an abandoned beer factory waste dump. The area is only accessible to local farmers and residents who know the terrain, accessible via two routes.

At 9 PM, the victim's wife, Ms. Kung, arrived at the police station with their daughter. She revealed that she last saw her husband that morning when he dropped her at the market. He was carrying regular passenger fares as usual and typically returned home around 9 PM. When he didn't return and his phone was off, she became concerned.

Her husband worked as a contracted taxi driver with mostly regular customers who would call him for rides. He carried cash for making change, a recently purchased mobile phone that he was paying off, an ID card, and an ATM card. She estimated approximately 10,000 baht in the bank account, as most customers transfer funds electronically.

Still in shock, Ms. Kung stated she had no suspects in mind, noting that her elderly husband suffered from diabetes, kidney disease, and high blood pressure. "Why would anyone do something so cruel?" she asked, expressing her determination to see justice served if the perpetrator is found.
