A birthday celebration in Rayong, Thailand, went south when a woman attacked her husband with a machete on March 14 at their rented place in Ban Sone Salung.
According to Channel 7 Thailand, the fight started when 48-year-old Boonyanuch made tomyam during the celebration. The couple was drunk when he allegedly said he wanted to eat chicken rice, sparking a heated argument.
She claims it was self-defence
Boonyanuch claimed that Em became aggressive and grabbed a crab-catching swing net in a threatening manner. In an attempt to defend herself, she reached for a machete, and during the struggle, the blade struck his head and ankle. However, police have yet to confirm if this was truly the case.
A 26-year-old witness said he was sitting outside with Em before the couple went inside. Moments later, he heard shouting and a commotion from their home.
When the authorities arrived, they found the 50-year-old victim lying on the floor with a bleeding head wound. Paramedics treated him on the spot before rushing him to the hospital.

Police have yet to locate the weapon
In the heat of the moment, Boonyanuch reportedly discarded the machete, and police have yet to locate the weapon.
For now, police have not taken any action against Boonyanuch, as the case is being treated as a domestic dispute. Authorities are waiting for an official statement from Em to determine if he wants to press charges.
