Police were notified of the attack at about 11:30pm, said Phuket City Police The couple were asleep in the bedroom on the second floor when they were woken by the robber, who threatened them and told the husband to open the safe on the ground floor. Mr Wangdee refused and a fight ensued, during which the robber beat Mr Wangdee repeatedly with a piece of wood. The robber then went downstairs and stole several items of gold that were not in the safe, and fled ... Lucky to still be alive . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
