Spurned Drunk Attempts to Burn Himself.

On the 14th of February at 2.30am Miss Chotiga Posod, aged 32, a staff member at 7-Eleven store on Thepprasit Road called Pattaya Police Station saying that her former boyfriend wanted to revive their relationship which she declined. Her refusal made the man crazy and he began pouring Benzene (gasoline) over his body and threatened that he would burn himself.

Police rushed to the scene to find a very drunk Montree Kotchasenee, aged 39, standing and screaming in front of the cashier counter. His clothes had indeed been soaked with gasoline.

Miss Chotiga and friends were standing outside the store attempting to calm and stop him.

Police cleared the people from the area and began to negotiate with him and eventually he calmed down and was booked.

Police found a bucket full of gasoline in a nearby garbage bin..

Miss Chotiga told Police that she had lived with Montree for 16 years and having 2 children by him. His drinking habits always caused arguments and fighting. She decided to separate one year ago but during that period Montree attempted to reverse their relationship and even though he promised not to hurt her anymore, she still refused.

Montree was taken into custody to calm down and later charged with causing a nuisance in public.

He should count his blessings...........some ex-girlfriends would have thrown him a box of matches

When the police arrived he was singing " Come on baby light my fire "

Now being Valentines Day if he had taken her a lovely bunch of red roses and a big box of chockies she might have been receptive..............but what girl wants a petrol soaked ranting drunk

Should have offered him a light.

Yikes - good the lad settled down, out of your mind to burn yourself like that.

should be prosecuted as an environmental hazard

Jai yen yen Khun Kerosene...

Isn't that what they tell us all the time?

Khun Kerosene

Just attempting to rekindle the flames of Love on Valentines...

He must be crazy.

With today's petrol prices, surely he could have found a cheaper way to die.

There's plenty of food for sale at 7-11 that would have been just as effective.

Not a nice way to go so I am glad he did not go up!

Yep. That would work for me. Come back to me darling. No. OK well I'll set myself on fire, that should do it.

The mind boggles:rolleyes:

Crazy b@stard!!

Libya, enough of the depressing news stories, I want more JOKES!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep. That would work for me. Come back to me darling. No. OK well I'll set myself on fire, that should do it.

The mind boggles:rolleyes:

It would have been a hot date though ...

Hate to say it but losing one's income can kindle some old irons in the fire

One of her old flames i guess!

He should have known that one day he would meet his match.

just another way to re-ignite the relationship

coupla kids and 16 years, they were hot once

As they say about Thailand 'everthings hot'

Good job he wasn't with his dog ... either one of them could have gone 'Woof'

This takes the notion of "carrying a torch" to ridiculous extremes...

Forget Valentines day he should have done it on 'Burn's night'.
