Nikom, 29, reportedly told police that she often argued with the Pornchita, mostly about stealing customers. They were talking it through in front of the bar before the fight broke out, Nikom said, when she became afraid for her safety so she grabbed the wine bottle opener and stabbed Pornchita in self-defense.

Krittha said police are questioning witnesses and inspecting security cameras at the scene.
