A violent Brit who fled the UK after breaking a man’s jaw has been nicked for attacking a tuk-tuk driver.

Shane Daniel Correia is now facing deportation back home after being involved in an aggressive fare dispute.

The 33-year-old refused to pay for his tuk-tuk trip from the red-light district which cost £6.70 (300 baht).

On 2 Jul, in the early hours of the morning Correia allegedly punched driver Chalong Kamplong after the dispute turned violent.

He was travelling from Soi Bangla to Soi Nanai, in Phuket, Thailand, as reported by Need To Know.

Footage from the attack shows the Brit threatening the tuk-tuk driver before slapping his phone away.

The driver was knocked to the ground after a blow to the head.

Correia then allegedly fled the scene with two women in a pick up truck.

Kamplong was then rushed to hospital with facial injuries, where he required eight stitches.

Thai police tracked down the Brit at his condo, where they revoked his visa – with cops labelling him a threat to society, public peace and safety.

The 33-year-old from Clacton-on-Sea, Essex, owns a legal cannabis dispensary in Phuket.

He has now been transferred to immigration pending deportation after the court proceedings conclude.

His provincial court date was set to take place on 3 Jul.

Correia previously faced a five year jail sentence in the UK after he fractured a student’s jaw during a noise dispute.

He has a warrant out for his arrest after he was convicted in absence of grievous bodily harm two months ago, as reported by the Colchester Gazette.
