Hot-headed singer Tao Somchai beats up 56 year old man

Not Cool! Nat Myria’s ex-husband and famous singer/actor Tao Somchai beats up 56 year old man, Weerachaat Pensirikul at a dumpling noodle restaurant in Lampang. Hmm…..noodles and dumplings, the best combination ever! According to Mr.Pensirikul, Tao Somchai abruptly came up to him while he was eating his bowl of “bamee kiao (noodle dumpling soup)” and punched him in the face, he fell to the floor. Tao then kicked him in the chest and punched him 4 more times. Other patrons of the restaurant dialed 191 (equivalent to 911 in the US); before the police came, Tao Somchai and his lady friend fled the scene.

Of course, there are two sides to every story, I’m sure Pensirikul is lying to some extent. Though it is wrong to punch someone in the face, especially when they a enjoying a good bowl of dumpling noodle soup (I consider that unholy), Tao was probably provoked and they probably had an argument of sorts. Tao Somchai is asked by the police to surrender himself. Will he? Probably, with a lame excuse too.

I have a feeling Pensirikul will be paid off and then they will have a lame press conference claiming it was a minor misunderstanding.
