webfact Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Farang shoplifter steals 800 baht bottle of vodka from 7-Eleven in Lamphun Picture: Manager Online Manager reported that a police patrol was called to a 7-Eleven near the market in Lamphun around 3 am this morning after a "farang" stole a bottle of vodka. Staff at the store said that two drunk foreign men had come into the store wanting to buy alcohol but had been told it was not possible as it was after hours. They left but one came back and while staff were distracted with stocking shelves went behind the counter and stole an 800 baht bottle of vodka. He was dressed in a green top with jeans. Staff did not dare confront him as they feared he may have a weapon. Some 45 minutes the alleged thief was arrested wandering in the market area after a member of the public gave a police patrol a tip. He went by the name of "Haring" and was aged 21 and appeared to be speaking something that sounded like Spanish. The man - who was not in possession of a passport - was taken to the police station. His accomplice remained at large.

Compare it with this salary in your home country to find the worth of 800 Baht in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traubert Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Yeah farang let him off, give him the keys to the safe, trivial, blah blah blah, police brutality..... The same thing was said about stolen 29,000baht drone the other day. These farangs are just misunderstood, right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Thai passport office Pattaya today with the missus. Reached their qouta 250 by 10am. 3 farangs with babies. Am keeping an eye out where I walk now so pavement threat has diminshed. I have to say with all the serious news in the world today Thailand's small earrhquake in chile nobody killed approach to it can be somewhat refeshing.

Orton Rd Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 (edited) I like Kulov Vodka it's only 399 for a litre and I don't have to steal it either, probably the best spirits made here, the rest in pretty awful including most of the so called brandy Edited January 8, 2020 by Orton Rd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
