An American man got a high-heeled shoe to the forehead after rudely telling a transvestite what he could do with his provocative drink offer.
Shawn Bowsher, 36, needed 13 stitches to close the gash sustained outside the Fancy Beer Bar on Soi Buakaow Aug. 14. He told police that he’d only walked by the ladyboy bar when he was surrounded by a group of men in skirts who propositioned him. He admits he less-than-politely told one ‘no’ and was attacked by one of the lad’s spiked heels.
Police the following night arrested Suranart Suyajai, 28, who had fled from the crime scene the night before.
Police said the Kampaengpet native admitted whacking the American because he rudely declined an offer to share a drink.
