A 22-year-old delivery rider has been arrested for robbing a convenience store in Bangkok while accompanied by his dog, in an incident that has drawn comparisons to the action film character John Wick. The suspect made off with just 700 baht, but was tracked down and arrested two days later. According to Metropolitan Police Commissioner Pol. Lt. Gen. Siam Boonsom, the suspect, identified as Mr. Anocha, was apprehended outside a dormitory in Nonthaburi province on 9 July. He was arrested under a warrant issued by the Taling Chan Criminal Court on charges of night-time robbery using disguise and a vehicle to facilitate the crime and escape. The robbery took place on 7 July at approximately 22:10 at a convenience store near the entrance to Charan Sanitwong Soi 82 in Bang Phlat district, Bangkok. CCTV footage captured the suspect wearing a black balaclava and entering the store with his dog. He threatened staff and forced them to open the till, escaping with around 700 baht in cash. No injuries were reported during the incident. Police used surveillance footage and witness accounts to track the suspect’s movements. Investigators observed that the dog waited loyally outside the shop as the robbery took place, drawing comparisons to the iconic dog-loving assassin John Wick. Upon arrest, Mr. Anocha confessed, stating that financial hardship drove him to commit the crime. He claimed to be working as a rider and had scouted the store multiple times before carrying out the robbery. He expressed regret and admitted he had been “happy for only two days” before being caught. The suspect is now in custody at Bang Phlat Police Station and faces formal charges in connection with the robbery. Authorities have not yet confirmed what will happen to the dog.

Accident Retired Highway Policeman Killed in Collision In Chonburi
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A retired highway police officer was killed on the morning of 10 July, when his motorbike was struck by a car on a bridge in Chonburi province. The victim’s wife and child arrived shortly after the incident and were seen collapsing in grief upon discovering his lifeless body. The crash occurred at approximately 07:30 on the New Chonburi Bridge (Phase 1) in Mueang district. Police Lieutenant Kawin Juirod from Mueang Chonburi Police Station responded to the scene alongside rescue personnel from the Tri-Kunatham Foundation. The victim, identified as 69-year-old Police Sub-Lieutenant Surasit, a retired highway patrol officer, was found lying face down at the roadside. He had suffered severe injuries, with blood visible from his mouth and nose, and abrasions across his body. His green Honda Wave motorcycle, bearing a red temporary licence plate, had been damaged at the rear. Nearby, police discovered a grey Honda Civic sedan registered in Bangkok. The driver, a man in his early 30s identified only as “Mr Ek”, was unharmed but visibly shaken. A breathalyser test revealed no trace of alcohol in his system. The driver said he had been travelling in a straight line when the motorcycle suddenly pulled out from the roadside in front of him. He claimed there was no time to brake and avoid the collision. Rescue official Mr Thanakrit, 45, from the Tri-Kunatham Foundation, explained that medics had attempted to resuscitate the victim at the scene but were unsuccessful. “He had no pulse when we arrived,” he said. “We did everything we could, but it was too late.” Moments later, the victim’s wife and child arrived at the scene, only to be overcome with emotion upon seeing his body. They said he had just left their home in Ban Suan and was heading to Bang Sai on a personal errand. Police have launched a full investigation into the crash and will conduct a detailed interview with the driver. Officers also intend to review nearby CCTV footage to determine the exact sequence of events before proceeding with any legal action. Adapted by Asean Now from Khoasod 2025-07-11 -
