A crash has claimed the life of a 36-year-old man in Lampang province after he veered his pickup truck off a high bridge and overturned, trapping him inside and killing him. Police from Mae Phrik Station confirmed the fatal crash occurred around 20:00 on 11 July near kilometre marker 584 on the Super Highway, in Ban Mae Chiang Rai Bon, Mae Phrik district. Rescue teams from the Lampang Volunteer Rescue Association and forensic doctors from Mae Phrik Hospital were dispatched to the scene. Upon arrival, authorities found a white Toyota Champ pickup truck registered in Lopburi lying overturned beneath the bridge, which is approximately 10 metres high. The vehicle was resting on its roof and scattered around the site were numerous mobile phone accessories, including phone cases, screen protectors and SIM cards. Inside the wreckage, the lifeless body of the driver, identified as Mr. Pakin, was discovered pinned beneath the vehicle. Rescue teams worked to extract his body from the mangled remains of the truck. Preliminary reports indicate that Mr. Pakin had been driving from his home to visit his girlfriend in nearby Lamphun province when the crash occurred. Investigators believe he may have lost control of the vehicle before it plunged from the bridge, but are reviewing any available CCTV to confirm no other vehicle was involved. The body was transported to Mae Phrik Hospital for autopsy and authorities notified the deceased’s relatives. Police have launched a full investigation to determine the cause of the crash.

Accident Rescue Worker Lowered 10 Metres to Save Drowning Dog
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A heartwarming act by a Thai rescue team has drawn widespread praise after they successfully saved a young dog from drowning in a 10-metre-deep drainage shaft The rescue took place in Ban Dung district, Udon Thani province, after local residents in Ban Wang Phra Ong village reported that a female dog, around two years old and named “Dang”, had fallen into a deep drainage shaft and appeared to be struggling to stay afloat. Upon arrival, members of the VR Ban Dung Rescue Unit quickly assessed the situation and saw that the dog’s head was bobbing in and out of the water, showing signs of severe fatigue. Fearing the dog would drown a rescue worker “Dew” made the decision to lowered down into the narrow shaft using a rescue line and pulley system. The confined space made the descent particularly challenging, but Dew carefully manoeuvred his way down and managed to reach the distressed dog. He lifted Dang to safety and both emerged from the shaft unharmed. The moment Dang was pulled to safety, she ran straight into the arms of her relieved owner, tail wagging in clear gratitude. Social media erupted with praise for the rescue team, particularly Dew, whose quick thinking and determination likely saved the dog’s life. Comments poured in, hailing the rescue workers and applauding their compassion. “Every life matters,” wrote one netizen, summing up the sentiments of many who were touched by the story.
