Chonburi Rescue Foundation workers were called upon to give assistance to a man who had sustained a significant head wound apparently from a piece of steel falling on his head.
At the scene in Moo 2 of Tambon NaPa in Amphur Muang Chonburi they found a Khun Jaroon aged 52 who was bleeding profusely from a 5-6 cm gash in his head. He was staggering around as if he was drunk which would be quite a normal reaction if you had just been struck in the head by a piece of steel.
He was transported to a local clinic at Wat Thong Khung but doctors there did not have the facilities to treat such a major head trauma and he was subsequently transferred to Chonburi Hospital.
Relatives of Khun Jaroon protestated that the injuries Khun Jaroon sustained were not as a result of an accident but were inflicted by police who were trying to control him when he got drunk.
