Handsome Thief robs Gold Shop

A gold snatching occurred in Nithiwat Gold Shop located in Soi Buakhao on 21st January at 6.30 pm.

At the scene Miss Ketsiri caretaker of the shop told the police that earlier when she was selling the gold items, a Thai man came in and asked to look at a 1 Baht gold necklace. When she reached it to him, he snatched it, and immediately ran out of the shop.

She chased after him and screamed to the motorbike taxis in that area to help her; they tried but didn’t succeed in capturing the man.

The police viewed the video recorded by the surveillance camera and now have the image of the suspect, which is seen as quite a good-looking man. More proceedings will take place from there for a possible arrest of the criminal.

I think he was last seen making off down Soi 6 or Soi 8....

Heard a few screams of 'Hansummmmm maaaaaan' last time I was down there
