Two British tourists were seriously injured in a knife fight at a hotel in Thailand.
Jeven Agyekum Hood and Kieren Caria were returning to the Cassia Hotel from a night out when a fight broke out in their room in Bangkok, in the early hours of June 14.
Neighbours claimed they heard screaming before Caria was seen leaving the room clutching his stomach and appearing injured.
He then returned with a knife, before more fighting was heard.
The hotel manager called the police after the pair staggered out of the elevator and collapsed in the hotel's ground floor lobby.
Photos show them lying on the floor covered in blood. Both were rushed to hospital for treatment.
Police said the violence erupted in room 3616 on the 36th floor, where bloodstains were found across the walls and floor following the apparent struggle.
A bloodstained 10-inch folding knife was recovered from inside the elevator and seized as evidence.
CCTV footage allegedly showed the two men entering the room together at around 2:16 am before they were heard arguing.
At around 2:25am, an injured Caria left the room before returning carrying a knife, officers said.
Police believe the tourists became involved in a heated argument that escalated into a knife fight, leaving both seriously wounded.
Investigators were awaiting statements from the injured pair as they continue gathering evidence.
