18-year old drowns as flash floods hit parts of Thailand’s Nakhon Ratchasima

 

 

A young man was swept away by strong currents and drowned when flash flood swept into a subdistrict in Wang Nam Khieu district of Thailand’s northeastern province of Nakhon Ratchasima before dawn Sunday.

 

The victim’s friends told officials that they were riding motorcycles back home when, without warning, a deluge of water swept the 18-year old away, with his motorbike.

 

They said they tried to help him, but the current was so strong that there was nothing they could do.  The victim’s body was later found in subdistrict Wang Mee, in the same district.

Rest In Peace! 18 is so not the age to go!

Trying to ride through water is always dangerous, should have stayed well away.
