Video: Drugs arrest Thai style: Good for nothing son out of jail torments father

 

Picture: TNA

 

A video from Khon Kaen in Thailand's north east showed Thai cops take the best part of an hour to arrest a man high on Ya Ba.

 

The patient cops used metal restraining rods to eventually arrest the 35 year old amid fears that he would take a member of the public hostage.

 

He had already threatened his own father and thrown bottles at around thirty cops and rescue workers who were trying to take him down.

 

He even covered himself in fuel and threatened to set light to himself before he was successfully taken into custody.

 

Frustrated father Bunjorn Chompho said the man was his son Phongsin.

 

He told the cameras that his son was nothing but trouble and drugs was the problem.

 

He had been in prison twice and every time he came out it was the same. He didn't work and just did drugs and had tried to kill his father three or four times in the past.

 

Police took Phongsin away from the area by the railway tracks in downtown Khon Kaen in a pick-up truck. He will face prosecution.

What noone would give him a light ? Using tasers instead of clothes racks one would say would have a better effect !

Even as a foreigner living in this country, I feel embarrassed looking at that video.

30 policemen took more than an hour to subdue a drug addict...

It's not exactly a waste of resources as they have nothing else to do...

 

[marko kok prong]

In the USA he would have been shot dead.

[marc651]

Illustrates that locking up drug addicts does not solve anything. They relapse as soon as they get out, which is to be expected as the cause of their problem is not addressed, there is zero rehabilitation.

[klauskunkel]

That's a well-coordinated team. They must rehearse a lot.

Isn't that exactly the number needed in the "light bulb replacement squad?" 

[Bannoi]

Reminded me of the Keystone Cops.

[Destiny1990]

A knee shot was more then justified for this moron.

[prakhonchai nick]

Tasers, stun guns plastic bullets or  tear gas would have been better than clothes racks.

 

What was his crime? Being high?  If 30 cops started chasing me with clothes racks, I would defend myself with anything that was available.

 

500baht........Next!

...with almost 230,000 police in Thailand, they have to do something to keep busy...555

Interesting what only a couple of highly trained, well paid police officers can accomplish...

 

 

[Pinot]

You got to hand it to Thai cops for using restraint. How long would cops in the US put up with this? Would have shot him after 5 minutes.

A drug addict, twice imprisoned, soon to be thrice, who has threatened to kill his father on numerous occasions. A drain on society all around. Sometimes you just need to cull the herd. 

[NextStationBangkok]

Police were using wrong tools that would injure the victim , all they need is a fishing net. ?

[Xaos]

Pros at work.

Did they ever heard of teasers? It would be over in seconds.

Im sure you mean tasers ! teasers might have a problem with the man in the state he was in !

[maccastime]

Did he have a weapon?? If not keystone cop effort

[PREM-R]

 

So if it takes 30 cops to apprehend  1 man, high on Yaba, in Khon Kaen, 13 cops to apprehend 1 monk in Frankfurt, how many cops does it take to apprehend a Red Bull fugitive, in who knows where?

Well spent training $$$ and time on the Crack Team.

 

Like everything here, can't teach Stupid 

[kokopelli]

Always a joke by so many!  Fact is the police subdued the man with no loss of life or injuries. A job well done.

[ronaldo0]

All that for one guy with a bottle ? Seen less people tackling a lion !!

Tazer and a tin of mace to the face and he’s running into the nearest wall !! ?

in Australia they would have simply shot him dead, a good result by RTP

[Manny]

Thai police are Nice. In USA they would just shoot him dead ...

[murraynz]
