PHUKET:-- Kathu Police are bringing a 19-year-old man back from Takua Pa, north of Phuket, where he was arrested for stealing an ambulance from the Kathu branch of the Kusoldharm Foundation rescue center this early morning (July 23).

 

Capt Peerawat Yodtor of the Kathu Police explained that he received a call from the Kathu rescue centre of the Kusoldharm Foundation at around 4am, informing that a man had stolen an ambulance from their rescue center located in front of Kathu Municipality office.

 

Rescue worker Phannakorn Pongpao, who was at the rescue center when the ambulance was stolen, explained that he normally leaves the key in the ignition of the ambulance so it is ready for use at any time.

This is discraceful, imagine it was the only ambulance left, and there was an emergency call. Someone could have died.

Yes. He should have taken a police vehicle.

Would be days before they woke up and found it missing!
