Witnesses told police that they heard the Belgian expat arguing with a neighbor about a noisy water pump prior to being found deceased. The nationality and identity of the neighbor was not given to the press by the Pattaya Police as they continue to investigate.

The expat went to talk to the neighbor about turning off the noisy water pump before coming back to his house, the witnesses stated to the press. The argument was intense and police had to be called.
