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.

Sriracha Motorcycle Accident Kills Rider
Sriracha Police and rescue foundation units responded to a road traffic accident after receiving reports that a motorcycle had crashed into a lorry.
At the scene on Route 7 in BangPhra District they found an articulated lorry parked up at the side of the highway. At the rear was a mangled Honda Wave motorcycle and the body of it's rider Khun Anusorn aged 20 from Chonburi. The rider was dead with his head smashed in and laying in a pool of blood.
The reason for the crash unknown. The police could only surmise. It was dark, It was raining, The motorcycle was going at high speed. The rider didn't see the lorry. Whatever the reason or combination of contributing factors another young Thai life is snuffed out whilst riding a motorcycle.
The body of Khun Anusorn was removed from the scene and taken to hospital for a full post mortem to be carried out before his body is given to relatives for funeral rites to be carried out.

Sriracha Bungled Hostage Situation
Police officers in Sriracha rushed to the scene of a hostage situation in a house near Wat Phansadet.
A crazed man was holding his wife at gunpoint. Khun Paiboon aged 35 was seen frantically pacing the room and groaning in a strange fashion. The police cordoned off the area and asked Khun Paiboon to put down the gun and surrender. Khun Paiboon refused to give himself up and fired 6 shots at the police. They again asked him to throw his weapon out the window. They were reluctant to return fire knowing that his wife was inside.
Khun Paiboon pushed his wife to the floor and then left the house by the rear door and disappeared through a cemetery and into dense woodland even denser than the police who had clearly not sealed off the premises. His wife refused to give a statement to the police or provide any clues as to his probable whereabouts.
Police assume that Khun Paiboon's rants were drug fuelled and that he should be caught quickly as he may be dangerous. Yes after 6 shots fired at police I would probably come up with the same conclusion.

Ex-Husband Fatally Stabs Wif'es New Lover in Sriracha
A pair of lovers in Sriracha had booked into a motel in Bowin near Sriracha to do what young Thai lovers do - watch cartoons when the ex-husband turned up and a fatal fight ensued.
Bowin police were called to the scene at a room in the Red Heart Hotel where they found 18 year old Khun Machima in a distressed state. Her new boyfriend of just one month Khun Suwat aged 33, was laying in a pile of blood. He had sustained stab wounds to his chest and back and was barely clinging to life. Medics did what they could but he died soon after from his wounds and severe blood loss.
Khun Machima told the police that her ex-husband had been stalking her. She had booked the hotel room so that she could welcome home her boyfriend Khun Suwat who had just returned from Malaysia. Her ex-husband Khun Satitphong had tracked her down to the motel and barged into the room armed with a knife and a vicious fight broke out. The ex-husband fled after repeatedly stabbing her boyfriend, fleeing on a motorcycle.
Police have now launched a manhunt for this dangerous killer and expect an arrest to come very soon.

Man Found Dead in Hammock in Sriracha
Sriracha Police and Rescue Foundation workers were called to a construction site located near the ocean front where a body had been found laying in a hammock.
At the scene they found the body of a Khun Sanan aged 30 from Surin Province in the Northeast of Thailand. Khun Sanan worked at the nearby construction site.
Police were puzzled by the death. He was a young man. There were no signs of any assault or reason to suspect that anyone else was involved in his death. He appeared to have gone to sleep in the hammock and simply not woken up. The weather has been hot recently and this may be a factor in the young man's demise. The body was taken to Sriracha Hospital for a full post mortem to be carried out. Officials will have to wait until they have the results before they can settle this mysterious death.

Storm Dumps Crane at Leam Chabang Port
A miraculous escape for a crane operator working a huge container moving crane at Leam Chabang Port in Sriracha. A storm over Leam Chabang resulted in a strong gust of wind that latched on to his massive crane. As he was manoevering his huge machine the gust of wind lifted his crane weighing hundreds of tonnes and unceremoniously dumped it off the end of the pier into the harbour.
The crane operator with seconds to spare jumped into the water way below and survived with only minor injuries.
The crane and the cargo container it was transporting fared less well and ended up at the bottom of the harbour. No damage was reported to the multi million dollar wharf.
Port officials are now attempting to retrieve the cargo and the lost crane - using of course another crane. It is expected to take 2 to 3 days and cost 100 million Baht for the recovery operation. I hope they are careful to watch out for black clouds over Leam Chabang.

Truck Crash and Fire in Sriracha
Nongkham Police in Sriracha were alerted of a major road accident in their area with reports of one of the vehicles on fire. Police rushed to the scene along with fire brigade units and other rescue vehicles and medics.
There were two vehicles involved. A 22 wheel lorry had crashed into the back of an 18 wheel lorry containing wood chips. The container of wood chips was well ablaze and fire fighters set to work dousing the fire with their water hoses. It took a while to bring the fire under control. It was only then safe for rescuers to attempt to get into the mangled cab of the rear lorry using cutting equipment and The Jaws of Life. This tricky operation took over an hour.
The charred body of the driver was removed. It was not possible to make an identification at this time. He is thought to have been aged between 35 - 40
His body was transported to Leam Chabang Hospital for a full post mortem to be carried out before the deceased can be released to relatives for funeral rites to be carried out. Police commented that this type of rear end crash happens often especially as in this case in the early hours of the morning when drivers simply fall asleep at the wheel.

Kitten Freed in Sriracha
Rescue workers from The Sawang Prathip Rescue Foundation in Sriracha were called upon to make a purrfect rescue when a member of the public called their radio control centre that they had found a kitten trapped in netting.
The rescue workers were alerted and woken from their cat nap that they were taking and keen to avert a catastrophe did not pause and rushed to the scene. There was much pity for the kitty who was not only frightened but more than a little ferocious as it tried to bite anyone who got too close.
The rescue workers unfurled their equipment for this type of emergency - a pair of scissors and spent an hour carefully freeing the frightened feline. The kitten now extricated did not pause to thank the rescuers and scooted off no doubt glad to be born free.

Khun Permpon aged 19 made his own way to the police station to report the highway robbery. He was able to give descriptions of the robbers all about 20 years old and descriptions of the motorcycles they were riding.
Police technical officers were able to get a GPS ping from the stolen phone somewhere in the Jomtien Beach area before the signal stopped obviously the phone had been turned off. They are hoping the phone may be turned on again sometime soon meanwhile they are examining images from CCTV cameras in the area that may give them more leads as to their identities.
