66-Year-Old Man Fires Blank Gun at Temple Following Online Dispute
A 66-year-old man was involved in a disturbance at a local temple after firing a blank gun, reportedly triggered by an online argument regarding road repairs.
According to a report by Matichon Online on October 22, 2026, a 66-year-old man caused alarm at a temple after firing a blank gun while intoxicated. Local residents reported that the incident was sparked by an ongoing online dispute concerning local road maintenance issues.
For residents and travelers, this incident highlights the potential for localized disturbances in public spaces.
