In the early hours of Sunday morning whilst Dongtan police officers were out patrolling the streets of Jomtien, they came across a brawl occurring on the beach in front of Soi Welcome Hotel. Involved in the battle were 15 boys and 3 girls, all under the age of 18, wielding long knives, baseball bats and steel bars. Seeing the police, some of them tried to make a getaway in a nearby parked baht bus. They were rounded up and taken back to Dongtan police station. Most were students from Bangkok, on holiday in Pattaya; the rest were local teenagers, and all claimed they carried the weapons for self protection. The driver of the baht bus stated that he was hired by the Bangkok students to take them around Pattaya. They were all detained as their parents and guardians were contacted about the incident.
