A government marine officer is suspected of shooting his girlfriend dead before driving more than 50 kilometres across Chumphon to kill a perceived rival. Niphon “Ae” Phongkaeo, 59, reportedly shot Damrat Sawetwong, 50, three times inside a secluded Pathio gambling house and seriously wounded another woman. Minutes later, he was found dead in his pickup with a .38-calibre revolver on his lap. Then came the chilling discovery that transformed the case. Police found his girlfriend Thanapha, 48, shot twice inside her home beside a farewell notebook reportedly bearing Niphon’s name. Investigators are now reconstructing a suspected jealousy dispute, an earlier reported death threat and two bloody crime scenes that left three dead and one seriously injured.

A government marine officer is suspected of killing his girlfriend before driving more than 50 kilometres to hunt down a perceived rival. He then allegedly shot the man dead and seriously wounded another woman inside a Chumphon gambling house.

Minutes later, he was found dead behind the wheel of his pickup with a .38-calibre revolver on his lap. Yet the full scale of Saturday’s bloodshed only emerged hours later. Police found his 48-year-old girlfriend shot twice inside her rented home. The discovery turned one deadly shooting into a two-district investigation involving three deaths and one seriously injured survivor.

The suspected gunman was Niphon “Ae” Phongkaeo, 59, an employee of the Department of Marine and Coastal Resources. Reports identified him as a boat-control officer attached to the department’s Bang Saphan centre. Police suspect his girlfriend, Thanapha, 48, was the first person killed. She worked as a pork vendor and lived in Mueang Chumphon district.

The first known crime scene was a rented commercial property in Soi 2, Mueang Chumphon. However, police did not discover Thanapha’s body until Saturday evening. At approximately 6 pm, officers received a report concerning a dead woman inside the property. Police Lieutenant Naruephon Chuchuay, a deputy investigation inspector, responded with investigators and rescue workers. A forensic doctor from Chumphon Hospital also attended.

The property formed part of a row containing eight commercial units. Outside the first unit, investigators found two vehicles linked to Niphon. One was a white car, while the other was a large motorcycle. Inside, police found Thanapha lying dead on a bed in the living area. Crucially, she had been shot twice.

One bullet struck around the right side of her mouth. Another hit her left breast or chest before exiting through her back. By then, blood around the wounds had already dried. Police initially estimated that Thanapha had been dead for at least five hours. That immediately pushed the suspected killing back into Saturday morning.

Earlier, Thanapha’s father had repeatedly tried to contact his daughter. When she failed to respond, he travelled to her rented property. However, he found the premises closed and could not reach her. He then questioned people living nearby. Notably, neighbours told him they had heard gunshots during the morning.

In response, Thanapha’s father sought police assistance. Officers entered the property and found his daughter dead. They also found something else beside her body. A white notebook was sitting on a table near the bed. Its contents immediately became another important strand of the investigation.

The notebook contained handwritten farewell messages concerning family members. Separately, the writing referred to arrangements for making merit. The messages were reportedly signed “Ae Krab Niphon”. Police seized the notebook for examination. Investigators have not simply accepted its reported authorship and are examining it as evidence.

At the same time, initial inquiries pointed to a serious dispute between Niphon and Thanapha. Police are examining jealousy as the suspected cause of their confrontation. Investigators suspect Thanapha was shot during that dispute. Afterwards, Niphon is believed to have left the property.

What followed stretched the investigation more than 50 kilometres across Chumphon province. Police believe Niphon travelled from Mueang Chumphon towards Pathio district. His apparent destination was a newly built single-storey house in Moo 3, Chum Kho subdistrict. The property stood about 400 metres from the main road.

More specifically, reports placed the house in Soi Khiam Thao. It stood near the road linking Pathio and Khlong Wang Chang railway stations. The owner was Damrat Sawetwong, 50. In addition, reports indicated that the property was regularly used for gambling.

A 75-year-old local man identified as Rayong described the operation to reporters. He said card games were regularly held at the house. According to his account, gambling could start at around 10 am and continue until approximately 1 am. Later, police found substantial quantities of playing-card equipment at the property.

Inside the house, meanwhile, events had turned deadly shortly after 10 am. A woman identified as Thipawan gave investigators a direct account. She said she had just arrived when Damrat prepared to stand and offer her a chair. Niphon was already inside.

Suddenly, according to Thipawan, Niphon produced a handgun. He then fired three shots at Damrat from close range. Another woman inside the property was also struck. She was identified as Kanawan Suwannachawi, 60.

Available reports indicate Kanawan was caught in the shooting and suffered serious injuries. Importantly, the supplied information does not establish that she was the principal target. Both victims were rushed to Pathio Hospital. Damrat’s injuries proved fatal, while Kanawan survived the initial attack.

For Damrat, there was no recovery. Doctors were unable to save the 50-year-old after the close-range shooting. Kanawan, meanwhile, remained seriously injured. Niphon had already left the immediate scene.

Outside, a white Isuzu extended-cab pickup was parked beside or behind the house. Niphon went to the vehicle and climbed inside. Soon afterwards, witnesses heard another gunshot. This time, they described the sound as quieter than the shots fired inside.

Police subsequently found Niphon dead in the driver’s seat. He had suffered a gunshot wound through his head. The bullet entered through his right temple and exited through the left side. More significantly, officers found a .38-calibre revolver resting on his lap.

From there, the investigation turned heavily towards ballistics. Reports said the revolver’s cylinder contained four rounds. One had been fired, leaving three live rounds and one spent casing. Yet investigators reportedly found additional ammunition evidence inside the vehicle.

Three spent cartridge cases were recovered from the pickup, according to detailed reports. Police also reportedly found another two unused rounds in Niphon’s trouser pocket. As part of this, investigators must establish exactly how the ammunition relates to each shooting. They must also compare ballistic evidence from both crime scenes.

Nearby, police found a blue Toyota extended-cab pickup belonging to Damrat. Around that vehicle, another part of the operation emerged. Officers reportedly discovered a white fertiliser sack packed with hundreds of decks of playing cards. They also recovered a blue table covering and numerous discarded card wrappers.

Consequently, police seized the gambling material as evidence. Forensic officers also moved through the property collecting DNA and other physical evidence. Local information indicated that Damrat’s house had only recently been constructed. One account said the land had been sold approximately three months earlier.

On another front, a neighbour provided further information about the morning attack. The neighbour reported hearing three gunshots while a card game was reportedly underway. That account broadly matched Thipawan’s description of three shots being fired at Damrat. However, police faced a problem when seeking possible video evidence.

CCTV equipment at the property was reportedly not operating. Therefore, investigators may have no direct recording of the shooting inside the house. Instead, witness testimony and forensic evidence will be important in reconstructing the attack. Thipawan’s account provides police with a direct description of the moments before Damrat was shot.

Police examine jealousy claims as reports reveal gunman had wife in Surat Thani and another girlfriend

Meanwhile, information about the suspected motive became more complicated. Initial Pathio reports suggested Niphon believed Damrat was involved with his wife or female partner. Some early accounts also described Kanawan as Niphon’s wife. Later reporting, though, presented a different picture.

Niphon reportedly had a wife who worked as a government employee in Surat Thani province. She was reportedly in Surat Thani while the shootings unfolded. Moreover, she apparently knew nothing about the violence at the time. Relatives later contacted her with news of Niphon’s death.

She subsequently returned to Chumphon to deal with funeral arrangements. Thanapha, by contrast, was separately identified as Niphon’s girlfriend. Police are therefore examining the relationships linking Niphon, Thanapha and Damrat. Investigators received information that Niphon suspected Damrat was involved with Thanapha.

People associated with the gambling circle supplied another potentially important account. They claimed Niphon had become intensely suspicious about the pair. Significantly, one account described a direct warning only two days before the shootings.

Reported threat two days before killings emerges as police reconstruct 50-kilometre shooting trail

According to that information, a message was passed to Damrat through one of Thanapha’s friends. Niphon reportedly told Damrat to stay away from his girlfriend. The same account claimed he threatened to shoot Damrat if he refused. These claims have not been established as formal police findings.

Even so, investigators are examining that information while reconstructing events before Saturday’s killings. Police are also working to establish precisely what happened between Niphon and Thanapha. Their investigation now spans two separate scenes and a journey exceeding 50 kilometres.

The emerging sequence begins in Mueang Chumphon. Police suspect Thanapha was shot twice inside her rented home during the morning. Her body then remained undiscovered for hours. In the meantime, Niphon is believed to have left the property and headed towards Pathio.

There, he arrived at Damrat’s newly built house in Chum Kho. Thipawan said Niphon was already inside when she arrived shortly after 10 am. Damrat was preparing to offer her a chair. Seconds later, according to her account, Niphon pulled a handgun.

Three close-range shots followed. Damrat was fatally wounded, while Kanawan was also hit. Niphon then went outside and entered his Isuzu pickup. Shortly afterwards, another gunshot was heard.

Second crime scene transforms Pathio shooting into three-death case spanning two Chumphon districts

By the time police reached the vehicle, Niphon was dead behind the steering wheel. The .38-calibre revolver remained on his lap. At that stage, however, investigators still did not know the full extent of the day’s violence.

Hours later, Thanapha’s worried father went searching for his daughter. That search opened the second crime scene. By approximately 6 pm, police were examining another shooting more than 50 kilometres from Damrat’s house.

Inside the rented Mueang Chumphon property lay the third body connected with the sequence. Thanapha had two bullet wounds and dried blood around her injuries. Nearby sat the handwritten notebook containing farewell messages and the reported signature “Ae Krab Niphon”.

The discovery sharply expanded the investigation. Until then, early reports had concentrated on the Pathio shooting. The known toll involved Damrat’s death, Kanawan’s injuries and Niphon’s apparent suicide. Now, police had another dead woman, another shooting scene and another crucial timeline to establish.

Accordingly, investigators must determine the precise time Thanapha was killed. Her body was discovered at approximately 6 pm. Police initially estimated that she had been dead for at least five hours. Neighbours had also reported hearing gunfire during the morning.

Police compare timing, notebook and ballistics while tracing gunman’s movements between two scenes

That timing is being compared with events in Pathio. Thipawan placed the shooting there shortly after 10 am. Investigators must now determine when Niphon left Mueang Chumphon and reached Damrat’s house. His movements between both locations are central to the case.

Equally important is the notebook found beside Thanapha. Police must establish who wrote the messages and when they were written. The references to family and merit-making arrangements form part of that examination. The reported “Ae Krab Niphon” signature is also being scrutinised.

In parallel, forensic teams are examining the .38-calibre revolver and ammunition recovered in Pathio. Investigators have live rounds, spent casings and other ballistic evidence. They must compare that material with evidence recovered from both shooting scenes.

Separately, police are questioning witnesses from Mueang Chumphon and Pathio. They must establish the precise circumstances surrounding Kanawan’s shooting. Investigators are also examining the vehicles and Niphon’s suspected route between both districts.

The gambling operation provides another strand. Police reportedly recovered hundreds of decks of cards inside a fertiliser sack. They also seized a table covering and discarded card packaging. Yet the reportedly inactive CCTV means witnesses and forensic evidence become particularly important.

Against that backdrop, the relationship between the three central figures remains under investigation. Police are examining jealousy as the suspected motive but have not established a final motive. The reported threat against Damrat two days earlier also remains under examination.

Three dead and one woman seriously wounded as police piece together two-district Chumphon shootings

Niphon’s relatives later took his body to the Sai Chon Charity Foundation in Chumphon for funeral arrangements. His wife also returned from Surat Thani after relatives informed her about his death. Police, however, continued working across both crime scenes.

By then, the scale of the case was clear. Three people were dead across two districts. Another woman had been seriously wounded. One suspected gunman connected both scenes.

Thanapha, 48, was found shot twice inside her Mueang Chumphon home. Damrat Sawetwong, 50, died after being shot three times at close range in Pathio. Niphon “Ae” Phongkaeo, 59, was found dead inside his pickup. Kanawan Suwannachawi, 60, survived but suffered serious gunshot injuries.

Now, police are assembling the morning from witness accounts, ballistics, vehicles and physical evidence. They are also reconstructing a journey exceeding 50 kilometres between the two shooting scenes.

The suspected sequence is stark. A woman was shot twice inside her rented home. A government marine officer then travelled across Chumphon to a secluded house used for card games. There, a witness says he fired three close-range shots at a perceived rival.

Another woman was also shot and seriously wounded. Minutes later, the suspected gunman was found dead behind the wheel of his pickup. A .38-calibre revolver rested on his lap.

Hours afterwards, police discovered the first woman’s body. Beside her was a notebook containing farewell messages reportedly signed “Ae Krab Niphon”. Investigators are now piecing together the precise chronology across both scenes. The toll stands at three dead and one seriously injured.

在“犯罪”、“生活”、“媒体”、“泰国”类别下

一名政府海事官员涉嫌枪杀女友后，驱车50多公里穿越春蓬府，杀害其认定的情敌。据报道，59岁的尼蓬·“艾”·蓬凯奥在帕提奥一家偏僻的赌场内，向50岁的达姆拉特·萨韦特翁连开三枪，并重伤另一名女子。几分钟后，人们发现他死在自己的皮卡车里，腿上放着一把.38口径的左轮手枪。随后，一项令人不寒而栗的发现彻底改变了案件的走向。警方在48岁的女友塔纳帕家中发现了她，她身中两枪，旁边还有一本据称写有尼蓬名字的遗书。调查人员正在重现这起疑似因嫉妒引发的纠纷、此前报道的死亡威胁以及两起血腥的犯罪现场，这起案件造成三人死亡，一人重伤。

一名政府海事官员涉嫌杀害女友后，驱车50多公里追捕一名他认为的情敌。据称，他在春蓬府一家赌场内开枪打死该男子，并重伤另一名女子。

几分钟后，人们发现他死在皮卡车的驾驶座上，腿上放着一把点三八口径的左轮手枪。然而，周六这起血案的全部规模直到几个小时后才浮出水面。警方在他租住的房子里发现了48岁的女友，她身中两枪。这一发现使原本一起致命枪击案演变成一起涉及两个辖区的调查，造成三人死亡，一人重伤。

嫌疑枪手是59岁的尼蓬·“艾”·蓬凯奥，他是海洋与沿海资源部的雇员。报道称，他是该部门邦沙潘中心的一名船舶管制员。警方怀疑他的女友，48岁的塔娜帕，是第一位遇难者。她是一名猪肉摊贩，居住在春蓬府。

警方在一名猪肉贩子父亲报警后，在其租住的春蓬府房屋内发现她身中两枪。

已知的第一个犯罪现场位于春蓬府2巷的一处出租商铺。然而，警方直到周六晚上才发现塔纳帕的遗体。大约下午6点，警方接到报案称该商铺内发现一具女尸。副调查督察纳鲁蓬·楚楚艾中尉带领调查人员和救援人员赶赴现场。春蓬医院的一名法医也到场协助。

这处房产是包含八个商业单元的一排建筑的一部分。在第一个单元外，调查人员发现了两辆与尼丰有关的车辆。一辆是白色轿车，另一辆是大型摩托车。警方在屋内发现塔纳帕躺在起居室的床上，已经死亡。关键是，她身中两枪。

一颗子弹击中了她右侧嘴部附近。另一颗子弹击中了她的左侧胸部，然后从背部穿出。那时，伤口周围的血迹已经干涸。警方最初估计塔纳帕已经死亡至少五个小时。这使得这起疑似谋杀案的发生时间立即提前到了周六早上。

此前，塔纳帕的父亲曾多次尝试联系女儿。由于女儿没有回应，他前往女儿租住的房子。然而，他发现房子紧闭，也无法联系到女儿。随后，他询问了附近的居民。值得注意的是，邻居们告诉他，当天早上他们听到了枪声。

警方在遇害女子身边发现遗书，并追踪这名海军军官前往帕西奥的旅程

随后，塔纳帕的父亲向警方求助。警员进入屋内，发现他的女儿已经死亡。他们在她尸体旁还发现了其他东西。床边的桌子上放着一本白色笔记本。笔记本的内容立即成为调查的另一条重要线索。

笔记本中包含一些手写的关于家人的告别信。此外，还有一些关于积德安排的记录。据称，这些信件的署名是“Ae Krab Niphon”。警方已扣押该笔记本进行检查。调查人员并未轻易接受其作者身份的说法，而是将其作为证据进行检验。

与此同时，初步调查显示尼蓬和塔纳帕之间存在严重纠纷。警方正在调查嫉妒是否是导致两人冲突的真正原因。调查人员怀疑塔纳帕在冲突中被枪击。事后，尼蓬据信离开了现场。

随后的调查范围扩大到春蓬府50多公里。警方认为尼蓬从春蓬府市区前往帕提奥县。他的目的地似乎是春科镇3村一栋新建的单层房屋。该房屋距离主干道约400米。

枪手抵达偏僻的帕西奥赌场后，目击者看到近距离开了三枪。

具体来说，报道指出这栋房子位于Soi Khiam Thao，靠近连接Pathio和Khlong Wang Chang火车站的道路。房主是50岁的Damrat Sawetwong。此外，报道还指出，该房产经常被用于赌博活动。

一名75岁的当地男子罗勇（Rayong）向记者描述了这起赌博活动。他说，这所房子里经常有人玩牌。据他描述，赌博活动通常从上午10点左右开始，一直持续到凌晨1点左右。随后，警方在该处查获了大量的扑克牌用具。

与此同时，屋内事态在上午10点刚过不久便急转直下，酿成惨剧。一名名叫蒂帕万的女子向调查人员提供了直接证词。她说她刚到时，达姆拉特正准备起身给她让座。尼蓬当时已经在屋内了。

据蒂帕万称，尼蓬突然掏出一把手枪，近距离向达姆拉特连开三枪。屋内另一名女子也中弹，她名叫卡纳万·苏瓦纳查维，60岁。

现有报告显示，卡纳万在枪击事件中受伤，伤势严重。但值得注意的是，现有信息并未表明她是主要目标。两名受害者均被紧急送往帕西奥医院。达姆拉特伤势过重，最终不治身亡，而卡纳万则在最初的袭击中幸存下来。

达姆拉特身亡，第二名女子身受重伤，随后一名海军军官被发现死于他的皮卡车内。

达姆拉特不幸身亡。这位50岁的男子在近距离枪击后，医生们未能挽救他的生命。与此同时，卡纳万仍然身负重伤。尼蓬当时已经离开了现场。

屋外，一辆白色五十铃加长驾驶室皮卡停在房子旁边或后面。尼芬走到车旁，爬了进去。不久之后，目击者听到又一声枪响。这一次，他们形容枪声比屋内传出的枪声要小。

警方随后发现尼芬死在驾驶座上。他头部中枪，子弹从右侧太阳穴射入，从左侧穿出。更重要的是，警方在他的腿上发现了一把点三八口径的左轮手枪。

此后，调查重点转向弹道学。报告称，左轮手枪的弹巢内有四发子弹。其中一发已经发射，剩余三发实弹和一枚弹壳。然而，据报道，调查人员在车内发现了其他弹药证据。

据详细报告显示，警方在皮卡车内发现了三个弹壳。另据报道，警方还在尼芬的裤兜里发现了另外两发未使用的子弹。作为调查的一部分，调查人员必须确定这些弹药与每起枪击案的具体关联，并比对两个犯罪现场的弹道证据。

警方缴获左轮手枪、弹壳和未击发子弹，弹道调查将两起枪击案联系起来。

警方在附近发现了一辆属于达姆拉特的蓝色丰田加长型皮卡。围绕着这辆车，行动的另一部分也浮出水面。据报道，警方发现了一个白色化肥袋，里面装满了数百副扑克牌。他们还找到了一块蓝色桌布和大量废弃的扑克牌包装纸。

因此，警方扣押了赌博用具作为证据。法医人员还对该处房产进行了勘查，采集了DNA和其他物证。当地消息称，达姆拉特的房子是近期才建成的。有消息称，这块地大约在三个月前被卖掉了。

另一方面，一位邻居提供了更多关于当天早晨袭击事件的信息。这位邻居称，当时有人正在进行牌局，他听到了三声枪响。这一描述与蒂帕万对达姆拉特遭到三枪射击的描述基本吻合。然而，警方在寻找可能的视频证据时遇到了困难。

据报道，该处房产的监控设备未能正常工作。因此，调查人员可能无法直接获取屋内枪击事件的录像。相反，证人证词和法医证据对于重现袭击过程至关重要。蒂帕万的证词为警方提供了达姆拉特被枪击前瞬间的直接描述。

警方正在调查有关嫉妒的指控，此前有报道称枪手在素叻他尼府有妻子，还有另一名女友。

与此同时，关于嫌疑作案动机的信息变得更加复杂。Pathio 最初的报告显示，尼丰认为达姆拉特与他的妻子或女性伴侣有染。一些早期报道还称卡纳万是尼丰的妻子。然而，后来的报道却呈现出不同的情况。

据报道，尼蓬的妻子在素叻他尼府担任政府雇员。枪击事件发生时，她也在素叻他尼府。而且，她当时显然对暴力事件一无所知。后来，亲属联系她告知了尼蓬的死讯。

随后，她返回春蓬府处理丧葬事宜。相比之下，塔纳帕被单独确认为尼蓬的女友。因此，警方正在调查尼蓬、塔纳帕和达姆拉特之间的关系。调查人员收到消息称，尼蓬怀疑达姆拉特与塔纳帕有染。

与赌博圈有关的人士提供了另一份可能至关重要的证词。他们声称，尼丰对这两人产生了强烈的怀疑。值得注意的是，其中一份证词描述了枪击案发生前两天收到的直接警告。

枪击案发生前两天曾有威胁报告浮出水面，警方正在重建长达50公里的枪击路线。

据消息人士透露，塔纳帕的一位朋友向达姆拉特传递了一条信息。据称，尼蓬告诉达姆拉特远离他的女友。同一消息来源还称，尼蓬威胁达姆拉特，如果他不听话，就开枪打死他。这些说法尚未得到警方的正式调查结果证实。

尽管如此，调查人员仍在审查这些信息，并努力还原周六枪击案发生前的事件经过。警方也在努力查明尼蓬和塔纳帕之间究竟发生了什么。他们的调查范围目前涵盖两个不同的地点，行程超过50公里。

案件的线索始于春蓬府。警方怀疑塔纳帕当天上午在她租住的房子内遭枪击身亡，身中两枪。她的尸体随后数小时无人发现。与此同时，尼蓬据信离开了住所，前往帕提奥方向。

他随后抵达了达姆拉特位于楚姆科新建的房子。蒂帕万说，她上午10点刚过到达时，尼蓬已经在屋里了。达姆拉特正准备给她搬椅子。据她描述，几秒钟后，尼蓬就掏出了一把手枪。

随后响起三声近距离枪响。达姆拉特身负重伤，不治身亡，卡纳万也中弹。尼丰随后走到屋外，钻进他的五十铃皮卡。不久之后，又传来一声枪响。

第二个犯罪现场将帕蒂奥枪击案扩大为横跨春蓬府两个县的三人死亡案件

当警方赶到车辆旁时，尼丰已经死在了方向盘后面。那把点三八口径的左轮手枪还放在他的腿上。然而，当时调查人员仍不清楚当天暴力事件的全部程度。

几个小时后，塔纳帕焦急的父亲开始寻找女儿。这次搜寻发现了第二个犯罪现场。大约下午6点，警方正在调查距离达姆拉特家50多公里外的另一起枪击案。

在租住的春蓬府房产内，发现了与这起连环杀人案相关的第三具尸体。塔纳帕身中两枪，伤口周围有干涸的血迹。旁边放着一本手写笔记本，上面写着遗言，据称署名为“Ae Krab Niphon”。

这一发现极大地扩展了调查范围。此前，早期报道主要集中在帕西奥枪击案上。已知的伤亡包括达姆拉特的死亡、卡纳万的受伤以及尼蓬的疑似自杀。如今，警方又发现了一具女性尸体、另一处枪击现场，以及另一条需要厘清的关键时间线。

因此，调查人员必须确定塔纳帕遇害的确切时间。她的尸体大约在下午6点被发现。警方最初估计她已经死亡至少5个小时。邻居们也报告说，当天早上听到过枪声。

警方将时间、笔记本记录和弹道数据进行比对，同时追踪枪手在两个案发现场之间的行踪。

调查人员正在将这一时间点与帕提奥（Pathio）的事件进行比较。蒂帕万（Thipawan）称枪击事件发生在上午10点刚过。调查人员现在必须确定尼蓬（Niphon）何时离开春蓬府（Mueang Chumphon）并到达达姆拉特（Damrat）的住所。他在这两个地点之间的行踪是案件的关键所在。

同样重要的是在塔纳帕旁边发现的笔记本。警方必须查明是谁写的，以及写于何时。其中提及的家庭和功德安排也是调查的一部分。据称出现的“Ae Krab Niphon”签名也在仔细审查之中。

与此同时，法医小组正在对在帕西奥找到的.38口径左轮手枪和弹药进行检验。调查人员掌握了实弹、弹壳和其他弹道证据。他们必须将这些物证与从两个枪击现场提取的证据进行比对。

此外，警方正在询问春蓬府和帕提奥县的目击者，以查明卡纳万遭枪击的确切情况。调查人员还在检查涉案车辆以及尼蓬往返两县的路线。

赌博活动是案件的另一条线索。据报道，警方在一个化肥袋里查获了数百副扑克牌，还缴获了桌布和废弃的扑克牌包装。然而，据称监控录像已失效，这意味着目击证人和法医证据就显得尤为重要。

在此背景下，三名核心人物之间的关系仍在调查中。警方正在调查嫉妒是否是作案动机，但尚未确定最终原因。两天前达姆拉特收到的威胁报告也仍在调查中。

警方正在调查春蓬府两区发生的枪击事件，共造成三人死亡，一名女子重伤。

尼蓬的亲属随后将他的遗体送往春蓬府的赛春慈善基金会办理丧葬事宜。他的妻子在亲属告知其死讯后也从素叻他尼府赶回。然而，警方仍在两个犯罪现场继续展开调查。

到那时，案情已经十分明朗。两个区共有三人死亡，另有一名女子身受重伤。一名嫌疑枪手将两起案件联系起来。

48岁的塔纳帕（Thanapha）被发现死于她位于春蓬府（Mueang Chumphon）的家中，身中两枪。50岁的达姆拉特·萨韦特翁（Damrat Sawetwong）在帕提奥（Pathio）被近距离连开三枪后身亡。59岁的尼蓬·“艾”·蓬凯奥（Niphon “Ae” Phongkaeo）被发现死于他的皮卡车内。60岁的卡纳万·苏万纳查维（Kanawan Suwannachawi）幸存下来，但身负重伤。

现在，警方正根据目击者证词、弹道分析、车辆信息和物证还原当天上午的案情。他们还在重建两处枪击现场之间超过50公里的行程路线。

案情疑似经过：一名女子在租住的房屋内遭枪击，身中两枪。随后，一名政府海军军官前往春蓬府一处偏僻的房屋，该房屋常用于赌博。据目击者称，他在那里近距离向一名他认为的对手开了三枪。

另一名女子也中枪，身受重伤。几分钟后，嫌疑枪手被发现死在皮卡车驾驶座上，一把点三八口径左轮手枪放在他腿上。

数小时后，警方发现了第一名女性的遗体。在她身边有一本笔记本，里面记录着据称署名为“Ae Krab Niphon”的遗言。调查人员正在努力还原两起事件的确切时间顺序。目前死亡人数为三人，另有一人重伤。
