According to Pattaya police, one person, a 25-year-old Burmese national named Mr. Myo Zawoo Ci, who was in charge of taking care of the rental rooms, was injured. He was hit in the head with a hard object and suffered a cut and had profuse bleeding. He was taken to a local hospital by rescue workers.
