Grenade found during drug bust in Bang Saray

 

Bang Saray:-- Police uncovered a live grenade when searching the Bang Saray apartment of a man arrested for dealing drugs.

Sattahip District Chief Anucha Intasorn led district and military drug officers in the Nov. 7 string operation that netted 27-year-old Chaiyaporn Boonkanlaya outside Huay Yai Village in Najomtien.

Officers seized seven grams of crystal methamphetamine from him and then searched the suspect’s apartment where they found no more drugs, but did discover the grenade.

The arrest came after one of Chaiyaporn’s alleged customers at Najomtien Euarthorn Village ratted him out to authorities after being arrested for drug use.

Chaiyaporn is now helping police arrest his dealer who supposedly is a major supplier in Pattaya.

Place is turning into Merica. Why on earth would a small time operator like that need a bloody grenade?

It's so you can fight while you are running away.

Caught with 7 grams....

Don't know about grenades but certainly all the practice ordnance on military aircraft is that shade of blue so maybe that is a practice or dummy grenade

Could be wrong, but it looks like an M-30 (M-26 practice variant) grenade. At least the ones I was familiar with just made a loud bang and puffed some smoke for simulation. Ahhh, the good ol days.
Don't know if this is just a stock image or a photo from the scene though.

Gives him the allusion that his penis is larger than it really is!

I'm sure he will get a nice reception in jail since his name is mentionned and he is collaboring on catching his own dealer.

What's a string operation?  Sounds like a knotty problem for the local Plod.
