Accident Chumphon: Farm Worker Killed as Tractor Plunges Down 30-Metre Ravine

A incident occurred in Chumphon province on 8 June, when a 40-year-old farm worker died after the tractor he was driving veered off a steep road and plunged into a ravine approximately 40 metres deep. The incident also left a female passenger injured, though she narrowly escaped more serious harm by leaping from the vehicle just in time. Police Lieutenant Samart Than-in, duty investigator at Tha Sae Police Station, received an emergency call around 17:00. The crash took place along the steep, mountainous Phanwa-Ke-La Road, in Moo 13, Rabror Subdistrict, Tha Sae District, around 20 kilometres from the Thai-Myanmar border. Rescue teams from the Chumphon Charity Foundation and Rabror Subdistrict Administrative Organisation responded swiftly. Upon arrival, they discovered 34-year-old Ms. Panadda from Udon Thani, who had suffered injuries to her head and body. She was transported to Tha Sae Hospital for treatment. The deceased was later identified as Mr. Sarawut, 40, from Huai Yot District in Trang province. His body was found lying face-up in roadside undergrowth with blood visible around his mouth. Emergency responders covered the body with a white sheet before recovering it and sending it to Tha Sae Hospital for a formal post-mortem examination. Initial on-site investigations revealed skid marks on the steep descent, indicating a loss of control. At the bottom of the ravine, responders located a severely damaged red tractor with shattered wheels and scattered parts, along a trail of broken vegetation. Ms. Panadda, who had been riding as a passenger, managed to jump clear of the vehicle before it plummeted into the ravine. Authorities believe Mr. Sarawut was ejected from the vehicle and then fatally crushed as the tractor tumbled down. Police are continuing their investigation and plan to interview Ms. Panadda further to determine the exact circumstances leading to the incident. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-06-10 -

Community Python Gorges on Chicken, Takes a Nap Under Pickup Truck Bonnet
Picture courtesy of Workpoint. Residents of a quiet neighbourhood in Rayong province were left stunned when a large python was discovered curled up under the bonnet of a pickup truck, apparently digesting a chicken it had just devoured. The incident occurred around 11:00 on 9 June, in the Rarn Nam alley of Pluak Daeng District. Local rescue workers were alerted by a resident who spotted the snake slithering into the engine compartment of a parked vehicle and feared it could pose a danger. Upon arriving at the scene, rescue personnel found a pickup truck, parked in front of a house. Opening the bonnet revealed a two-metre-long python coiled calmly within the engine bay, seemingly enjoying a post-meal rest. The rescue team managed to safely extract the snake within minutes and later released it back into its natural habitat. The vehicle’s owner, 29-year-old Mr Nikhom said he had earlier heard unusual noises coming from his chicken coop but had not investigated at the time. “I didn’t think much of it,” he said, “until I opened the bonnet during a routine check and nearly jumped out of my skin when I saw the python curled up inside.” Mr Nikhom believes the snake had consumed one of his chickens and taken refuge in the vehicle’s engine compartment to digest its meal and escape the heat. “We sometimes see snakes around here,” he added, “but I’ve never found one sleeping in my truck before.” Adapted by Asean Now from Workpoint 2025-06-10 -

Accident Mother Killed, Son Seriously Injured in Motorcycle Crash with Parked Truck
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A 30-year-old woman has died and her 12-year-old son is in serious condition after their motorcycle collided with the rear of a parked truck transporting a modular home in Phitsanulok province. The collision occurred on Highway 1086, in front of a noodle shop in Mueang district, Phitsanulok. The victim, identified as Ms. Siwika, was riding her motorbike with her son as pillion passenger when she lost control and crashed into the back of a white Isuzu flatbed truck. The truck was one of three parked along the roadside, delivering prefabricated homes. Rescue workers from the Khaophap Foundation rushed to the scene. Ms. Siwika was found unconscious with critical abdominal and head injuries, with a visibly broken left arm. Despite efforts to resuscitate her, she was pronounced dead at the scene. Her son sustained serious head and abdominal injuries. He was transported to Buddhachinaraj Hospital where he remains under close medical supervision. The boy has not yet been informed of his mother’s death to avoid causing further emotional trauma. Family members arrived at the scene shortly after the incident. Ms. Siwika’s mother collapsed in grief upon seeing her daughter’s body. Through tears, she shared that her daughter had travelled into Phitsanulok city earlier that day to visit a sick relative and was on her way home to Nong Tom Market in Phrom Phiram district, where she made a living selling goods. Mr. Sumit, the 30-year-old driver of the truck, told police that he and his team had driven from Pathum Thani to deliver the modular homes. They had stopped to eat noodles at a roadside stall when the crash occurred. He said the motorcycle appeared to brush against one of his team members walking beside the road, causing Ms. Siwika to lose control and crash directly into the back of the vehicle. Police at Mueang Phitsanulok Station are continuing to investigate the incident and have begun taking witness statements. Legal proceedings will follow in accordance with the findings. Highway 1086, which runs between Phitsanulok and Wat Bot, has recently been expanded into a four-lane road and has been the site of several fatal incidents. Just the night before, a motorcycle crashed into a roadside coffee stall less than 1.5 km from this incident, resulting in two fatalities. The body of Ms. Siwika has been released to her family for religious rites. Police continue to remind motorists and pedestrians alike to exercise caution on this increasingly dangerous stretch of road. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-06-10
