Five daredevil ne’er-do-wells were seriously injured in an accident stemming from a high-speed sword fight in Kratie on Tuesday.

Police said the suspects were racing through the streets on motos, duelling with samurai swords as they went.

Unsurprisingly, the chase ended in an accident, with injuries all around.

One of the troublesome truants reportedly told police that the fight had broken out when one of the suspects refused to sell another drugs. DEUM AMPIL
