Three men have been arrested following a fight in the emergency room of Ang Thong Hospital in the early hours of Sunday.

Police captured Nanthawat Sarngkhet, 29, Boonprasit Weerapong, 19 and Thanathip Murinchan, 24, on Monday.

The three were being interrogated at the police station after a brawl inside the hospital. They were among a number of people captured by security cameras in the area where the fight took place at 1am on Sunday.

Members of two gangs had a fight at an entertainment venue on Saturday night, ending in some being sent to the hospital. When other members of the gangs went to the hospital to visit their injured friends, another fight broke out in the emergency room. Those involved in the second brawl then escaped.

Police said the three were charged with assault and breaking into a state agency during night hours.
