A couple has been brutally murdered by their neighbour following a dispute over a parking space in Thailand.

The tragic incident occurred on Thursday, December 14, moments after Michael Nixon and his partner Anurak had finished entertaining friends at their home.

Their neighbour, Kachornsak Panyadee, who was allegedly tired of the couple's visitors blocking his house's entrance, waited until the guests went home before marching into their home armed with a knife.

A Mail Online report revealed that Panyadee first stabbed Anurak as she answered the door before attacking Michael, who rushed to help his screaming wife.

Local Police Lieutenant Colonel Chaiwanich Khamlamool told journalists that they received a report about the stabbing and rushed to the scene, where Panyadee surrendered.

The police stated that Michael had two stab wounds to the chest and another to his torso, while Anurak was stabbed in the abdomen.

What caused the fatal stabbing

Anurak's 18-year-old daughter, Parichat Longsokchueak, was informed about the incident, and she disclosed that her mother had been quarrelling with their neighbour.

"I don't live with my parents, but I know my mom often argued with the neighbor regarding the parking. The perpetrator may have been dissatisfied with my family for blocking the parking space. My mother also tends to speak loudly, so that may also be a reason for his actions," she said.

Police Colonel Preecha Kengsarikij, deputy commander of the Khon Kaen Provincial Police, said initial investigations found Panyadee often disagreed with the couple over the parking area.

They said Panyadee would be charged with murder after admitting to stabbing the husband and wife.
