Accident Trailer Truck Carrying Ceiling Panels Crashes, Driver Crushed to Death
Picture from responders. A road crash has claimed the life of a 59-year-old trailer driver after his vehicle, heavily loaded with ceiling panels, veered off the road and overturned, fatally crushing him beneath the cargo. The incident occurred at approximately 22:30 on 18 April along the Asia Highway, near kilometre marker 15 in Ban Pa Bak, Moo 4, Thung Nari sub-district, Pa Bon district, Phatthalung province. Local police from Pa Bon Police Station and rescue personnel from Phatthalung’s emergency services were quickly dispatched to the scene. Upon arrival, authorities discovered the truck and trailer, registered in Songkhla, lying off the side of the road. It had been carrying a full load of large ceiling panels. The driver, identified as Mr. Manop, was found dead at the scene, crushed beneath the very panels he had been transporting. Rescue workers spent more than 30 minutes using specialised equipment to remove the heavy panels and a fallen tree that had compounded the wreckage. Mr. Manop’s body was eventually recovered, showing extensive trauma. Reports stated that nearly all his bones were fractured, and his skull had been flattened by the weight. According to a fellow driver travelling in a separate vehicle from the same transport team, Mr. Manop had departed from Bangkok with a delivery bound for the Sadao border checkpoint in Hat Yai district, Songkhla. Shortly before the incident, Mr. Manop reportedly called and told his colleague that he was too tired to continue driving and planned to stop for a rest. The colleague drove on ahead, only to later receive the devastating news from police. Initial investigations suggest that the driver may have fallen asleep at the wheel, causing the vehicle to veer off the road. However, police confirmed they would review CCTV footage in the area to determine the exact cause of the crash. Rescue personnel have since contacted the deceased’s family, and arrangements are being made to return Mr. Manop’s body to his hometown. -- 2025-04-20 -

Crime Three Juveniles Arrested for Motorcycle Theft in Udon Thani, Gang Leader Just 12 Years Old
Picture courtesy of Khoasod. Police in Udon Thani have apprehended three juveniles involved in the theft of a sidecar motorcycle, with the leader of the group shockingly revealed to be just 12 years old. The boy had only been released from a juvenile detention centre two months prior. The incident came to light after a local resident reported the theft of a blue sidecar motorcycle parked in Mueang District to Non Sung Police Substation. Police investigators, led by Pol. Sub Lt. Udomchok Singhakhunsiri, reviewed nearby CCTV footage and spotted three young boys acting suspiciously at around 03:45 on 18 April. Two were then seen riding the stolen vehicle, while the third followed on another motorcycle. Upon reviewing the footage, officers immediately recognised the suspects as local youths previously involved in similar crimes during the past year. The police quickly moved to arrest the trio at their homes in Village 8, Nong Khon Kwang Subdistrict. The arrested youths were identified only as; • Master A, aged 12 – identified as the gang leader • Master B, aged 13 • Master C, aged 14 During questioning, all three confessed to stealing the motorcycle. They claimed that they had initially been riding a relative’s bike, which was running low on fuel. In an attempt to siphon petrol, they stole the entire sidecar motorcycle, later parking it by a nearby reservoir to extract the fuel before fleeing the scene. Further investigation revealed that Master A had planned to dismantle the stolen vehicle and sell it for parts. The bike was moved to the rear of a seafood restaurant near the entrance to Udon Thani Industrial Estate, where some components had already been removed before the arrests were made. Pol. Sub Lt. Udomchok stated that the boys were known repeat offenders. Master A had been released from a juvenile detention facility just two months earlier, following a previous theft in which the victim declined to press charges due to the offender’s young age. Authorities are now proceeding with legal action, and the case has once again sparked debate over juvenile crime and rehabilitation in the country. -- 2025-04-20
