Man Electrocuted While Illegally Fishing in Phatthalung
Picture from responders. A 56-year-old man died after being electrocuted while attempting to use electricity to catch fish in a canal in Moo 6, Khlong Yai Subdistrict, Tamot District, Phatthalung Province. The incident, which occurred on the morning of 27 December, involved the man, identified only as Sompong, illegally tapping into a roadside power line to connect an electric shock shun device for fishing. While carrying out the hazardous activity, he inadvertently came into contact with live electricity, resulting in his immediate death. Local residents discovered the body lying in a canal with shallow water, approximately 20 centimetres deep, and promptly notified local authorities. Police and rescue workers from Tamot Police Station arrived at the scene, where they found the deceased man with fishing equipment and electrical wires connected to the roadside power line. According to Sompong’s wife, who requested anonymity, her husband would often go fishing in his free time when not working as a woodcutter. She noted that she had last seen him walking along the roadside earlier that morning but had no idea he was planning such a dangerous act. A preliminary examination of the body revealed burn marks on the man’s left hand, consistent with electrocution. No other injuries or signs of foul play were detected. The body was retrieved and handed over to the family. Authorities have emphasised the dangers of using electric shock devices for fishing, a practice not only hazardous to human life but also illegal due to its devastating impact on aquatic ecosystems. Fishing with electric shock devices is strictly prohibited under Thai law, with violators subject to legal penalties. -- 2024-12-28 -

Rescue Workers Clash in Chiang Mai Hospital Over Territorial Dispute Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A heated confrontation between two rescue teams in Chiang Mai has shocked the local community, with one team allegedly brandishing a metal pipe in a threatening manner during an altercation at a hospital. The dispute reportedly stemmed from overlapping responsibilities in transporting injured or deceased individuals, as a newly established rescue team entered the area without being integrated into the official local emergency response system.

Putin Expresses Readiness for Talks with Trump to End Ukraine War
Interesting. I've seen reports of Putin and Trump talking over the last four years but that is contradicted here where Putin says he has not talked to Trump in 4 years. Whatever, they're both known liars. -

Rescue Workers Clash in Chiang Mai Hospital Over Territorial Dispute
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A heated confrontation between two rescue teams in Chiang Mai has shocked the local community, with one team allegedly brandishing a metal pipe in a threatening manner during an altercation at a hospital. The dispute reportedly stemmed from overlapping responsibilities in transporting injured or deceased individuals, as a newly established rescue team entered the area without being integrated into the official local emergency response system. The incident occurred following the death of a foreign national in Saraphi District, Chiang Mai. Police from Saraphi Police Station initially contacted Ruamjai Rescue Foundation to collect the body and transport it to Maharaj Nakorn Chiang Mai Hospital. However, tensions erupted when another rescue team, reportedly from outside the Chiang Mai system, intervened and transported the body ahead of Ruamjai’s arrival. According to reports, the vehicles of both rescue teams converged at the hospital, where a verbal altercation escalated. Pictures shows one member of the non-local team allegedly blocking a narrow road with their vehicle, prompting accusations of obstructing access. The situation deteriorated further when a member of the same team reportedly wielded a metal pipe and attempted to intimidate the opposing group by reaching into their rescue vehicle. A representative from the victimised rescue team stated that the aggressors were a newly established unit from another province. “They are not officially part of Chiang Mai’s emergency medical response system and have no assigned jurisdiction here. Instead, they operate freely across areas, which has caused confusion and conflict,” the representative explained. In response to the incident, the affected rescue team has consulted a lawyer and plans to file formal charges against the aggressors at Phuping Police Station. They have also compiled video evidence to support their case. The Chiang Mai Rescue Association confirmed the sequence of events, noting that the non-local team had entered Chiang Mai without proper registration in the province’s emergency network. “This incident reflects a lack of coordination and accountability. Such unauthorised operations disrupt the established emergency response framework,” a spokesperson said. The incident highlights a growing issue in Chiang Mai, as unauthorised rescue teams from other regions increasingly encroach upon established rescue zones. Authorities have urged all involved parties to comply with official registration and coordination protocols to prevent further conflicts. -- 2024-12-28
