Nongprue police hunting hit-and-run driver

PATTAYA:--Nongprue police are tracking down the driver of a Bangkok construction company’s pickup truck who hit a street vendor and ran in Pong.

 

Dang Kiewcharoen, 50, was seriously injured when the truck crossed a lane divider and knocked her to the ground in front of Supawuth Industry Co in Pong. A video posted online showed the driver then fled the scene.

 

The accident knocked off the truck’s front bumper and police tracked the license plate back to the Bangkok firm.

Maybe a telephone in his hands?

Don't look like a truck to me - looks like a pickup!

A 500 baht fine will teach him.

Well the driver is certainly in the Pong now.

I thought that this guy was caught / handed himself in a day or so after the incident.

He claimed that he thought he had only hit the factory sign, and had fallen asleep at the wheel.
