Patong-
A Belgian man has died after he allegedly slipped and fell with his head making contact to the ground while he was trying to stop his friend who was arguing with a Thai man in Patong.
The Patong Police told the Phuket Express that they were notified from the Patong Hospital that a 31-year-old Belgian man had been pronounced dead at the hospital (The Phuket Express is withholding his name pending embassy and family notification.).
The victim’s unidentified friend told Patong police that he and the victim were arguing with a Thai man at an apartment in Soi Nanai in Patong.
