This story may not bear any relation to ESL but could be of interest to some.

The couple may teach---unknown--they were in Thailand for years renting a house .

Yah, what's up with the two stories. The cop said they made a huge scene and were fighting one another. The chick says that the cop didn't like her face painting so he hit her and then the guy attacked the cop. Both stories sound like crap. I wonder what really happened? After all Thai cops don't usually shoot foreigners.
