Pattaya Police and a unit from The Sawang Boriboon Rescue Foundation responded to a report of a road accident with an injured motorcycle rider in North Pattaya.
At the scene in Nong Yai section of Sukhumvit Road North Pattaya they found a damaged motorcycle overturned in the middle of the road and laying close by it's rider 26 year old Khun Krisada. He was laying unconscious and had suffered multiple abrasions and bruising all over his body. Medics gave first aid to the victim and then transported him to hospital for further emergency treatment.
A witness to the accident told the police that a water truck had come up from the rear and rammed the motorcycle causing it to crash and the rider to be thrown to the ground. As is the norm in so many road traffic accidents in Pattaya the offending party in this case the water truck promptly disappeared from the scene.
A description of the truck was broadcast on the police radio and soon after Nongprue police spotted the water truck. At this point the driver then took to his flip flops and did a runner leaving the truck.
With the water truck in police custody it should not be too difficult to trace the heartless and cowardly driver.
