According to the ladyboy, the large Australian refused to pay for sex so she pulled out a pair of nail scissors and waved them to protect herself from him.
According to the Australian, the ladyboy was making off with his phone and he did his best to get it back from her.
Patong police say no charges arose from the Saturday night altercation in Baan San, behind the Jungceylon shopping mall.
But they were aware of the incident and tried to settle it through mediation.
An officer said today that both the ladyboy and the Australian were taken to Patong Hospital to be checked for possible wounds and bruises.
The officer was unsure how the matter was concluded.
Patong police are frequently reticent to disclose information on incidents involving tourists. Giving details to local honorary consuls or embassy officials in Bangkok was once a commitment by all Phuket police.
But it no longer always happens because the regular three-monthly meetings between consuls, police and Phuket adminidstrators came to an end. The new governor has promised to restore them.
So, no injuries, no charges, no pictures. No story really. A space filler, Editor?

You need to read a non-news site, jimbo. There are plenty of them.
