Leam Chabang Police and rescue workers were called to attend a serious road accident involving a truck and a motorcycle. At the scene in front of The Srimongkol Market in Leam Chabang they found a wrecked motorcycle and the bodies of two men who had been tossed from the motorcycle and were laying in the road.
Khun Wanthong aged 52 who worked at Leam Chabang Port was deceased and his pillion passenger Khun Prasert was seriously injured. Khun Prasert was given first aid at the scene and then rushed o Leam Chabang Hospital for further emergency treatment.
The body of Khun Wanthong was also taken to hospital for a full post mortem to be carried out before he can be handed over to relatives for funeral rites to be carried out.
As for the vehicle that rammed into the back of the motorcycle - an articulated lorry. Well the driver did stop after the accident before doing the normal cowardly thing he did a runner. Police will be investigating the owners of the truck and will hopefully track down the cowardly driver.
