Foreign tourist filmed in altercation with massage workers in Phuket

A foreign tourist was filmed confronting massage workers on a roadside in Phuket, Thailand, in an altercation that witnesses said was linked to a dispute over an alleged unpaid extra service.

According to the source, the incident was captured on camera by Kane Burt and other bystanders from across the road. The male tourist was seen walking away before being followed by the massage workers. The source said the tourist then punched them.

The confrontation continued as the individuals moved into a nearby alleyway.

Witnesses told the source that the dispute began after the man received extra services but believed they were free, while a masseuse was expecting what the source described as a substantial tip.
