Chiang Mai Man Arrested for Assaulting Autistic Child

Violent Incident Shocks Community

Suspect Attacks Boy and Aunt

On July 14, 2025, a 35-year-old man was arrested in Chiang Mai for brutally kicking a 7-year-old autistic boy to the ground and assaulting the boy’s 25-year-old aunt when she intervened. The unprovoked attack occurred outside a department store in Bo Sang, Ton Pao subdistrict, San Kamphaeng district, leaving the local community in disbelief. The suspect’s actions have sparked outrage and raised concerns about public safety in the northern province.

Early Morning Assault

Incident Caught on CCTV

The assault took place at 4:15 a.m. on Monday, captured by CCTV footage that showed the man, identified only as Ek, violently attacking the young boy before turning on his aunt. The boy’s mother filed a complaint with San Kamphaeng police, detailing the traumatic incident. The footage, widely shared on social media, fueled public anger and prompted swift action from authorities to apprehend the suspect.

Suspect’s Arrest and Confession

Police Track Down Perpetrator

Using CCTV evidence, police located the suspect at a nearby housing estate, arresting him by 6:30 p.m. on the same day. During questioning, Ek confessed to the assault, claiming he was intoxicated and agitated by a barking stray dog. He admitted to losing control and lashing out at the boy and his aunt, who were passing by at the time. The suspect now faces charges of physical assault, with further legal proceedings underway.

Community Demands Justice

Outrage Over Child’s Safety

The attack on a vulnerable autistic child has ignited widespread calls for justice in Chiang Mai. Local residents and advocacy groups are urging stricter measures to protect children, particularly those with disabilities, from random acts of violence. The incident has highlighted the need for increased community awareness and support systems to ensure the safety of all citizens, especially in public spaces.

Suspect’s Defense Questioned

Intoxication Claim Under Scrutiny

Ek’s claim that his actions were triggered by alcohol and a stray dog’s behavior has been met with skepticism. Critics argue that intoxication does not justify the assault on a defenseless child and his aunt. Police are investigating whether other factors contributed to the incident, as the suspect’s explanation has done little to quell public frustration over the senseless violence.

Broader Implications for Public Safety

Strengthening Local Protections

This incident has prompted discussions about enhancing public safety measures in Chiang Mai, a popular tourist destination. Authorities are considering increased patrols and better surveillance in commercial areas to prevent similar attacks. As the case progresses, it underscores the importance of addressing mental health, substance abuse, and public behavior to safeguard communities and prevent future acts of aggression.
