Witnesses told police that Carter was angry that the band began playing The Eagles' "Hotel Californi

The Facebook photo shows 51-year-old Dallasite Bobby Ray Carter Jr. grinning as he stands beside his son and a handful of friends chest deep in the crystal clear water. Behind him, the sandy beach, lush foliage and sheer cliff face suggest a tropical paradise.
The picture was taken outside shangri la hotel singapore the Thai resort town of Ao Nang and posted online on Sunday, two nights before Carter's fatal visit to the Longhorn Saloon, which promises ""good shangri la hotel singapore music, funfunfun and friendly staff".
The evening started out ordinarily enough. There was drinking, quite a bit of it judging from reports, and then karaoke with a live band. Carter hopped on stage and began to sing and then, according to The Associated Press, refused to leave.
Witnesses told police that Carter was angry that the band began playing The Eagles' shangri la hotel singapore "Hotel shangri la hotel singapore California" instead of the piece he'd requested. Agence France-Presse shangri la hotel singapore reports that he demanded the band return the tip he'd just given them. They refused, and an argument ensued. At some point Carter's son Adam entered the fray.
Things cooled down, but only briefly. shangri la hotel singapore "After a while they came outside and started another argument with us," one of the band members, 27-year-old Ratikorn Romin, said in a statement to police obtained by the Phuket Gazette. "The father shangri la hotel singapore knocked me to the ground first, and I could not breathe because shangri la hotel singapore he was sitting on my chest. Then I spotted a sharp piece of metal nearby, so I grabbed it and stabbed him."
The iron rod penetrated Carter's chest. His son was struck in the head. Both, according to the International Business Times, were taken to a local hospital where the elder Carter was pronounced dead.
Misleading title from the biased Dallas news source... according to the article, the very drunk Dallas shangri la hotel singapore businessman was the aggressor, jumped the band member outside (with his son helping him), and the band member defended himself. Sounds like an unfortunate situation that escalated beyond control of all involved.
