Gun Toting Teenagers Steal Motorcycle in Nong Yai, Pattaya

Two 16 year old boys riding their motorcycle just past midnight on their way to meet a bunch of mates in Pattaya for a night out. They were passing a seven-11 store near the railway lines at the back of Wat Nong Yai, East Pattaya when they were confronted by a group of teenagers on their motorcycles parked up in front of the convenience store.

One of the gang pulled out a gun and fired a round off in the air. They ditched the motorcycle and ran for cover returning a little later to find that the gang had disappeared and so had their Honda Wave motorcycle.

The Nongprue police arrived on scene and interviewed the lads and examined CCTV footage outside the seven-11 to see if they could identify the gun toting highway robbers.

I have two questions
One - why are guns so freely available in Pattaya?
Two - What on Earth are the parents thinking allowing two 16 year old boys to ride a motorcycle just past midnight?
