Murder Manhunt For Brit Kickboxer In Thailand

 
A manhunt is underway for a British kickboxer wanted for the brutal murder of an American tourist in a Thai island resort.

Police are searching the island of Phuket for Lee Aldhouse, who is suspected of stabbing to death Dashawn Longfellow, 23.

Mr Longfellow was killed in his room at the Ya Nui Paradise Resort hotel and had been stabbed several times, said police lieutenant Anukul Nuket.

Nuket said Aldhouse, 28, was known for "getting drunk and picking fights and bragging that he's invincible".

Witnesses told how Aldhouse and Mr Longfellow had come to blows in the Freedom Bar in the Rawai area of the island in the hours before the killing.

Aldhouse was a regular at the bar and had trained in the Thai kickboxing sport Muay Thai, police said.

Mr Longfellow's girlfriend, known as “Ooy”, told the local Phuket Gazette newspaper that he had come on his motorbike to pick her up from work at 1am.

"Ooy" said he stayed for a few beers while he waited for her to finish at around 2am.

Witnesses said that a fight erupted when Mr Longfellow went to the toilet and found the entrance blocked by Aldhouse.

The Gazette reported that the fight was broken up and Mr Longfellow - who had apparently got the better of his opponent - took his girlfriend home.

Police said it appeared that Aldhouse had followed Mr Longfellow back to the hotel and another fight took place. Mr Longfellow was then stabbed to death.

Aldhouse had lived in Thailand for several years and was known for his strength and fighting ability.

He had been scheduled to fight former Muay Thai world champion and long term Phuket resident Jomhod Kiatadisak but pulled out of the fight at the last minute due to injury.

According to the tourism website Phuket Wan police have a copy of Aldhouse's passport and the suspect is known to be short of money.

According to the website he was recently the victim of a hit-and-run accident.

Mr Longfellow, a US Marine, had been in Phuket following a combat injury sustained in Afghanistan, friends said.

Update


PHUKET: Fugitive murder suspect Lee Aldhouse has been detained by airport authorities while trying to enter the UK, the Gazette has learned.

Lt Col Anukul Nuket, investigating officer in the case, confirmed that Chalong Police received the news from British officials yesterday.

Aldhouse is said to have departed Thailand from a small border crossing in Khlong Yai, Trat province, on August 17. Thai Immigration at that tiny checkpoint along the border with Cambodia may not have had access to online databases.

Chalong Police are now compiling evidence to try and have Mr Aldhouse extradited to Thailand to be charged for the stabbing murder of 23-year-old American Dashawn Longfellow in Rawai on August 14.

Mr Aldhouse, 28, was the target of an international manhunt for almost two weeks, after he allegedly followed the American home and stabbed him after the two engaged in a bar fight in Rawai.

Chalong Police will pass all evidence in the case to the Phuket provincial public prosecutor, who is expected to file an extradition request with the British Embassy in Bangkok as soon as possible.

The embassy will then liaise with Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he added.

Forensics Police have confirmed that the knife found at the scene was the murder weapon and a report from Vachira Hospital Phuket has confirmed that Mr Longfellow died from the knife wound, Lt Col Anukul said.

More damning evidence is available in the form of CCTV footage of a man closely resembling Mr Aldhouse entering a nearby 7-Eleven convenience store just before the time of the murder and ordering terrified staff to give him knives.

All evidence required for the initial extradition application is expected to be compiled today, Lt Col Anukul said.

Chalong Police hope to have the suspect back in Phuket within a week to be formally indicted, he added.

Well I hope (if he is guilty) that he is extradited back to Thailand, not sure what the punishment for murder is there. But if he is charged in Britain, then the punishment would not be anywhere close to what it should be!

Hi Bums

He was already on the run for a crime committed in the UK before he came to Thailand.

Not sure which crime would take precedent with UK authorities.

PS: UK would not extradite to any country that has the death penalty. Thailand would have to waive that particular sentence in this case to get him back!

Kick boxer wanted over Thai murder is arrested

A kick boxer from Birmingham wanted over the murder of a former US marine in Thailand, has been arrested at Heathrow Airport.

Thai police had named Lee Aldhouse, 27, as the main suspect in the murder of Dashawn Longfellow, 23, who was stabbed on 14 August on the island of Phuket.

Mr Aldhouse was also wanted by UK police for breaching bail terms.

Scotland Yard said a 27-year-old man was arrested at 1655 BST on 18 August for recall to prison.

It is understood that the Thai authorities have not yet issued an extradition warrant.

Mr Aldhouse had been training as a Thai kick boxer.

Mr Longfellow was attacked in his apartment, following an earlier bar brawl.
