Rowing teens allegedly destroy water mains in Nakhon Ratchasima village

By The Nation

 

 

Residents of Ban Nam Aom village in Nakhon Ratchasima’s Bua Yai district woke up on Monday to find they had no tap water as their water mains had been destroyed in a row between teenagers.

 

The villagers had witnessed teenagers fighting at 2am and chose not to intervene thinking it was an argument between young lovers.

 

However, when they woke up to find there was no running water, they got together to connect the dots and were led into believing the fighting teenagers may have been behind the dry taps.

 

They arrived at the water mains to find pipes and several nearby objects destroyed.

 

The villagers have decided to take legal action against the teens to prevent a similar event from happening.

Sometimes one clicks for the absurdity.

I really wanted to know how rowers bike a water main.

Thinking kayaks or double-scull

They where out practicing for the Phimai boat festival next month.

At least 20bht worth of damage in the photo.

I'd have that fixed in 10 minutes.

If your living in that area and your water has been affected then I'd say yes it's news....

this site isn't here just for your benefit.

Yes it is, if you were affected by that vandalism you would be kicking up a stink.

Journalism, once an occupation that commanded respect!

The sun had already near 'destroyed the "mains" by the looks of it!

Yep, on first reading the misleading headline I wondered how a canoe could break a water supply.

FIGHTING teens would have been more appropriate.

But of course, it just goes to show how the same word can have two different pronuciations and meanings, but with the same spelling.

I guess the teens needed more water for their rowing????
