Businessman executed while getting into his Porsche
Sickening footage shows the moment a British dad of four was shot dead in his top-of-the-line Porsche just moments after leaving a gym in a shocking execution.
Web developer Tony Kenway, 39, strolled toward the red Cayenne GTS 4×4 sports car at around 10:20 a.m. local time in Pattaya, Thailand.
But CCTV shows a man following behind him, opening the door and blasting him once in the head — killing him instantly — before speeding off on a waiting motorcycle.
Police and ambulance crews rushed to the scene outside the Saint Sport Club but Kenway, originally from Southampton, was pronounced dead.
Kenway’s family told the Sun Online they have no idea why he was targeted in the attack, with local media reporting that police believe the killer was a hired hitman.
His devastated sister Kirsty Kenway, 31, said: “We have no idea what happened. The police haven’t even informed us that he’s dead.”
Pictures taken by rescue workers show the businessman — with two distinctive tattoos across his shoulders — on the seat covered in blood.
A spokesman for Sawang Borriboon Rescue Pattaya said: ”We arrived at the scene at 10:20 a.m. in front of the Saint Sport Club.
”The businessman was in a sports car. We were notified that there had been a foreigner who was shot in the area.
”We found this person sleeping in the car and dead from a gun shot to the head. Gun shot casings were on the floor.
”The deceased is Tony Kenway, 39, a British businessman. He had been working out before going back to his car and the attacker was waiting.
”He shot one round. The shooter then fled on a motorcycle.”
Paying tribute to her brother, Kirsty, who lives in Southampton, said Kenway married Somporn — nicknamed Pans — five years ago.
She said the pair had two children of their own — a daughter age 3 and a baby born in September — and Kenway also had a 10-year-old stepson in Spain and a son, 9.
“We speak quite regularly and I visited him over Christmas. We had an amazing time, taking the kids to water parks, and he spent a lot of time with his niece.
“He loved being with his family. He absolutely adored his kids and he enjoyed playing with his baby son and he just made sure he looked after his children,” she told MailOnline.
“He had a brilliant life out there and he did a lot for charity, and helped build some schools. He had even met the future King of Thailand.
“Pans [his wife] is brilliant and she was the light of his life. She’s devastated by what’s happened.”
Police confirmed the identity of the dead man and said they were investigating.
The killer was described as a chubby man, wearing a white T-shirt and a black jacket, sports shoes and a cap that partly hid his face.
He had been seen standing under a shelter in front of a fitness shop.
Police collected a single spent cartridge case and a cigarette butt from the crime scene for examination.
Kenway’s wife, Somporn, 32, told police her husband had set up a company doing website design at Jomtien Beach.
A spokesman for Nong Prue Polcie in Pattaya said: ”We have started an investigation and we are looking for the attackers.”
A spokeswoman for the Foreign and Commonwealth Office said: “We are in contact with the family of a British man following his death in Pattaya, Thailand.
“Our sympathies are with them at this difficult time.
“We are in touch with the local police.”
