Thai Film Director Chased Off Scene of Molestation in Bangsaen Chonburi

A pervy Thai actor and would be porno film director got his come uppance this week when his victims turned the tables on him and chased him from the scene of his sexual assault causing him to lose control of his car and crash out in the final scene.

A group of Chonburi University students told the police of the lecherous antics of a Khun Witad aged 40 who had recruited the girls online and lured them to a hotel in Bangsaen, Chonburi for a creepy casting session.

Khun Witad had told them in advance that they would need to strip for the camera but they were not expecting the lights to go out and Khun Witad to move in to get a more hands on experience than the girls had signed up for.

One of the girls called her boyfriend who was waiting outside the hotel. He broke down the door and crashed the party. Khun Witad fled in the direction of Bangkok in his Mazda 2 vehicle only to crash himself in his eagerness to escape the miffed Thai maidens.

Khun Witad has been arrested by Chonburi Police and various charges await him when he makes his debut appearance at Chonburi Police Station.

Thai Road Rage Executioner in Sriracha

Chonburi Police stationed at Bowin Police Station near Sriracha received a report of a shooting incident from security staff at Amata City Industrial Estate. The police and rescue workers rushed to the scene near Suankularb Wittayalai School where they found a Rayong plated Toyota Commuter van belonging to The Sakura Company.

The Van had sustained multiple bullet holes to the windscreen and side door. The doors were locked so rescue workers had to smash the windscreen to gain access to the driver of the van. The rescue workers were able to extricate the driver Khun Yutthajak Wongsoonthorn aged 40 a Sriracha resident. Khun Yutthajak had suffered gunshot wounds to his head and his shoulder. He was in a serious condition and after receiving first aid at the scene he was transported quickly to Pluak Daeng hospital.

The police interviewed witnesses to the incident in particular a man who had been cutting grass nearby. He said that an articulated lorry had cut in front of the commuter van forcing it to stop. The driver got out of the lorry, walked up to the van and fired a hail of bullets into it. Then he calmly got back into his cab and drove away.

The police gathered evidence at the scene and then proceeded to the hospital in the hope of interviewing the badly wounded driver. Unfortunately they found that Khun Yutthajak had succumbed to his gunshot wounds.

Police are looking for the maniacal driver of the lorry and when found will be charged with the murder of Khun Yutthajak.

Leam Chabang Education Board Bribary Scheme

The Leam Chabang Education Board in Leam Chabang of course have set themselves a seemingly impossible task - how to get students in the area schools to think faster.

Maybe they should concentrate on getting the school kids to firstly think and then go for the faster bit. However they have come up with a sure fire scheme that I think or think faster may just conjure up the desired results.

At a meeting room at The Leam Chabang District Offices. Senior education and council officials unveiled the novel scheme. The first stage will see a mathematics competition. The competition will last for 10 to 20 minutes and the students will have to answer simple maths questions - let's not get carried away with difficult maths questions.

The scheme is based on bribery - The idea is to foster speed so the first kid to stick his hand up and presumably guesses right wins 1,000 Baht. The second kid gets 500 Baht, Third prize 300 Baht, and then consolation prizes of 100 Baht.

Now if no kids get  a question right then the prize money can be sent to my bank account courtesy of The Bangkok Bank, Central Pattaya branch, account number............

Drunken Driver in Chonburi Wrecks Motorcycle and Noodle Stall

After receiving notification of a serious road accident Police Lieutenant Suchart from Seansuk police station rushed to investigate and provide assistance. At the scene in Moo 6 of Tambon Baan Buk in Chonburi he found a Chevrolet vehicle that had been in collision with a motorcycle and a noodle stall.

Leuitenant Suchart had a little chat with the driver of the Chevrolet about what happened. The driver Khun Nopphadon aged 28 from Ratchaburi Province said that he was riving normally when his vehicle suddenly swerved and he wasn't able to control it.

He may have had a better chance of keeping control if he hadn't been over the limit for alcohol. The police charged him with reckless driving and he will need to be tested for alcohol at the station to see if this is added to the charge.

I hope his insurance covers for the damaged motorcycle stall. As for the wrecked noodle stall - well... good luck.

Thai Lady Drugs Dealer Taken Down in Chonburi

Police officers from Donhuaroh Police Station in Chonburi got wind of a drug dealer who was operating a take away drug delivery service in the area. Undercover drug suppression agents set up a sting operation to nab the nutter.

A drugs buy was arranged and at the appointed time the drugs dealer Khun Sakhorn aged 23 who hails from Amnat Chareon province arrived on her Yamaha Fino motorcycle.

Agents moved in, she tried to flee, a struggle ensued but she was no match for the short arms of the Thai law enforcement officers and 20 Yaa Baa (methamphetamine tablets were wrenched from her grubby hands.

Escorted back to the police station she soon confessed to the possession and distribution of class 1 narcotics. Then came the usual excuses. I worked in a factory, money no good, I worked in a Karaoke bar, money no good. Selling drugs money good. Good riddance another dealer in these evil street chemicals off the street, for the time being.

Two Bikes Stolen in One Night From Chonburi Apartment Block

Khun Prusada was gutted and pointed forlornly to the spot in the car park of his apartment block where his beloved Honda Zoomer X once stood ready to speed him along to school

A little further along another space stood empty. Another bike belonging to a Khun Khitsada had also been lifted just an hour later in the early hours of the morning by the same criminal crew.

CCTV cameras had recorded images of the two low lives climbing over the wall of the apartment block in Moo 1 of Klongtamru road in Chonburi. The first time stamp on the film showed 3am as they drove out on the first motorcycle. The time stamp showed 4am when the night riders returned and left on the second bike.

Another Serious Road Accident on Highway 7 Near Pattaya

Highway Patrol Officers were called to investigate a serious road accident at a flyover on Highway 7. When they arrived on scene they found a damaged Toyota Vigo Pick-up Truck and a wrecked Honda Wave Motorcycle. A unit of The Sawang Boriboon Rescue Foundation were already at the accident site with medics tending to the injured.

The young man who was driving the motorcycle and his girlfriend who was on the back were seriously injured and were soon on their way to Bangkok Pattaya Hospital for further emergency treatment.

The driver of the pickup Khun Ekachai 26 years old told the police that he was returning home from his job in Bangkok and that the motorcycle was in the wrong lane on the flyover and coming towards him at high speed, so fast that he could not avoid hitting it.  

The police are not convinced and continue their investigations. Hopefully the motorcyclists will survive and be able to tell their side of the story.

Vietnamese, Laos Ladies Arrested For Illegally Working at Sriracha Karaoke Bar

Chonburi Immigration Officers based in Pattaya, conducted an undercover operation and then raided a Karaoke Bar in Sriracha District.  which was alleged to be employing foreign workers who were not in possession of work permits.

Their sources proved correct and when they entered the restaurant and Karaoke Bar Chai Isara they found a number of employees Thai and foreign but not the owner who had conveniently taken a little time off which coincidentally coincided with the arrivel of the raiding party.

ID cards, Passports and work permits were carefully checked, looked at and scrutinised. 20 of the staff were detained for further investigations to be carried out. These were mainly Laoatian and Vietnamese hostesses whose job description was something like holding their guests microphones and consuming large quantities of coloured water at highly inflated water. Sounds like Pattaya doesn't it?

10 Vietnamese ladies who worked in the evenings and 13 ladies from the Democratic Republic of Laos were all able to produce their passports but sadly work permits were conspicuous by their absences

The ladies said that they had worked at the Karaoke bar for 2 weeks and were paid a princely or princessly sum of 100 Baht a day. Sadly, for them they all face the likelihood that they will be deported back to their home countries fairly soon.

Chonburi Sneak Thief Arrested

Chonburi police announced the arrest of a sneak thief who has been plaguing visitors to a park in Chonburi.

The thief Khun Wichit aged 31 would scope out the park for folks arriving on motorcycles. The park is a popular place for joggers and keep fit enthusiasts looking to get some healthy exercise in a relaxing open environment. Khun Wichit would wait for them to jog off and then prise open the seats on the motorcycles and rummage through for any valuables like mobile phones, wallets, money and watches.

Khun Wichit told the police that it took only 10 seconds to be in and out and confessed to 10 other similar crimes. Sometimes he sold the stolen goods at the shopping Mall and sometimes he was cheeky enough to call the owners friends and claim that he had bought the phone from a thief and offered to return the phones for a price of course. 

He is now waiting to pay the price himself as previous convictions for Yaa Baa possession and a spell in Chonburi prison has not quite got the message home.

Chonburi Two Car Pile-up

Chonburi police and rescue units had a difficult task to sort out a major road traffic accident between two vehicles in the Donhuaroh district of Chonburi.

When they arrived on scene they found two crashed cars, a Honda Coupe and a Honda Accord. The rescue was complicated by the fact that one of the vehicles had slammed into a post and downed some live power lines. These cables had to be pulled away before rescuers could start to give assistance to the trapped passengers.

The driver of the Honda Coupe and his wife were trapped in the vehicle and rescue workers had to use cutting equipment to free them from the wreckage. The driver of the other vehicle was also injured. They were all given first aid at the scene by medics and then transported to hospital for further emergency treatment.

The driver of the Honda Coupe said that he was returning from Bangkok and when he got to a bend by the temple the car in front braked hard to negotiate the curve. He applied his brakes but unfortunately slammed into the rear of the Honda Accord in front.
