Two Thai youths full of alcohol and testosterone were arrested after shooting guns into the air, allegedly to impress women and scare off rival suitors.

The incidents on Soi Phettrakul near the Hollywood disco shortly after midnight April 19 came after a full day of Songkran drinking and revelry for the two men arrested, Somram Onnimm, 19, and Pichit Kraboktho, 22.

Somram Onnimm and Pichit Kraboktho have been arrested for drunkenly shooting off their weapons during Songkran celebrations. Somram Onnimm and Pichit Kraboktho have been arrested for drunkenly shooting off their weapons during Songkran celebrations.

Police said Somran confessed he fired his 38-caliber handgun to impress a bargirl and pump up his persona among the approximately 30 other people there. He lost all his face when cops shackled and hauled him away.

Pichit was also busted for shooting off his hand-made pen gun. Police said he confessed he did so to alert other young men that he was leaving the party and headed to see his girlfriend, who had wisely stayed at home.
