Petchkasem police in Bangkok got a call that a man had fallen to his death down a drain at a gas station in Bang Khae yesterday evening.

 

Police captain Ekkachai Innimit went to the Caltex near the Indy Market as rescue teams were informed.

 

Down a 50 cm x one meter drain with no cover surrounded by old tires was 64 year old Suwan Phromnork from Korat.

 

He was in a seated position down the drain with water up to his chest. 

 

La-euay Meuanjai, 67, his wife, arrived at the scene and said that her husband had left their place in Bang Khae at midday to visit a repair garage by the gas station where his taxi was in for a service.

He'd been drinking with friends there while waiting for the repair. By evening it still wasn't complete so he decided to come home, reported Thai Rath.

 

On the way he stopped to relieve himself and it looks like he stumbled and fell down the hole, said his wife who would not press charges. 

 

Police are investigating.

 

ASEAN NOW notes that most gas stations have their own toilets - a place to go when you gotta go.

Ok, This is a man that chosen the profession as a taxi driver. He drive and leave car for repair, and during that time drink with friends, and get totally <deleted>. If the car would have been ready, he would in that condition have been driving it home. That is really the kind of people that Thailand want´s driving around tourists and their own citizens.

After that, he find him self in need of a toilet at a gas station. They usually provides toilets for customers and visitor, especially chains like Caltex as well as the location in Bangkok. One again he is so <deleted> drunk that he chose to the a leak in an open drain hole. He can´t even do that, an as a result he fall down.

 

Loss or no loss? I let you decide.

What an awful way to go, I was sympathetic until I read this…

 

[He'd been drinking with friends there while waiting for the repair.] 

 

He got so drunk he couldn’t stand up & fell down a hole…. Yet he may very well have driven the taxi home had it been repaired, or worse… took a passenger.

 

Sad for his family for his loss… but it seems his demise comes with the realisation that an innocent other, or others, is / are not injured or killed by his inability to govern himself.

So, she won't press charges against the hole?
