[QUOTE] Thailand Killing: Victim's Family Speak Out The family of Stephen Ashton - who was killed by a stray bullet while on holiday in Thailand - have spoken of their loss. The family of Stephen Ashton, who was shot dead at a New Year's Eve party in Thailand, have said they are "completely devastated by the loss of Stephen from our lives". He was an innocent bystander simply enjoying New Year celebrations, they said. Mr Ashton, 22, from Purley, South London, was caught in the crossfire during a fight between rival gangs. He is said to have been killed by a stray bullet as he danced with friends at a beach bar on the paradise island of Koh Phangan. Police Colonel Kittakarn Kramomthong, chief of police at the island's station, said officers had arrested a 26-year-old Thai man and confiscated a gun. The man is expected to be charged with manslaughter, he said. The suspect has reportedly confessed to killing the Briton.

Having your life ended so abruptly and pointlessly... rest in peace, I guess.

What an epic headline. The family is devastated, really? Losing a family member, here I thought they'd be celebrating. Also, we're making threads about people getting shot now? It's not a nice thing, surely, but this happens everyday, everywhere.

what kind of a family would it be if they didn't feel devastated or sad

I thought they were somehow literally 'devastated'.

During new years, there were a few slugs per minute impacting on my patio and roof. Was pretty crazy, and made me decide to take my pipe into the garage.
