Chiang Mai police announced the arrest of a Hungarian tourist who they say has been thieving all over Chiang Mai. Attila Kantor, 44, told cops that he had fallen in love with Chiang Mai but had run out of money and didn't want to go back to his homeland. So he tuned to theft so he could stay on in Thailand, selling on things that he stole. He was arrested yesterday after he stole an iPhone 6 from the Nit Noi Mobile shop in Prasingh Road downtown Chiang Mai. He had gone into the shop feigning interest in buying a phone but had grabbed one and taken off on his Honda Click 125. Police followed his trail from CCTV and found him but he escaped only to collide with another person and cause an injury. He was then taken into custody. Police said that he was responsible for renting bikes and selling them rather than return them. He had also been eating meals and racing off without paying. He was detained and readied for prosecution for theft.
