Mayom suffered a head injury requiring five stitches, while her sister sustained a bruised eye. Recounting the incident, Mayom stated they were riding their motorcycle when the taxi driver, after dropping off a passenger, abruptly cut in front of them without signalling. This sparked a heated argument, during which the taxi driver pursued and blocked their path, ultimately assaulting them.

The assault persisted even after Mayom fell to the ground, disregarding the presence of bystanders and tourists. Authorities are actively investigating the case to ensure justice for the victims and hold the assailant accountable for his actions in Pattaya.
