A fully functional hand grenade, type M26, was discovered in the neighbourhood of Wat Boon Sampan (Soi Khao Noi) in east Pattaya on April 22, sparking immediate action from police explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) personnel. A local security guard, Pratum Chomsuwat, 73, stumbled upon the grenade near a single-story cement house while cleaning the vicinity with a grass trimmer. Wrapped in cleaning cloth commonly used for vehicles, the grenade was found alongside a black aluminium box containing two 9mm gun bullets. Police officers swiftly cordoned off the area within a 200-meter radius of the bomb and awaited the arrival of EOD specialists to assess and dispose of the explosive device.
