webfact Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 By Tanakorn Panyadee Bang Lamung — handicapped lottery seller in a wheelchair was brutally assaulted and robbed in the Pattaya area on Monday this week in a crime that has shocked even veteran Pattaya law enforcement officers. On April 25th, local reporters met with Surachet Sithong, a 39-year-old handicapped lottery seller, at his residence in Soi Mabayai Lea 24, Nongprue sub-district, Chonburi after being notified that a thief brutally beat and robbed him on the side of Highway Number 36, Pong sub-district, Bang Lamung, Chonburi. Surachet had already reported the crime to the Huay Yai Police Station. According to his statement, he had a stress-induced stroke in the past which left the right side of his body paralyzed, but he was still slightly able to move around and make a living selling lottery tickets in a wheelchair.

ezzra Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 Unfortunately those lottery sellers are easy prey for criminals, most of them carry their proceeds with them and being unable to defend themselves i'm surprised why we that are many more such attacks... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jacko45k Posted April 26, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2022 My oh my, how low we have fallen? I recall thinking the same when this happened to a disabled guy in my UK home town, wheelchair bound, selling the evening newspaper and bits and bobs on the town hall square for many years. This is what addictive drugs turn us into...... evil personified. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAMHERE Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Unfortunately this is probably only the first time the scumbag has robbed a cripple, he'll do it again more than likely. Hope they catch the perp straight away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soi3eddie Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Everytime I see a disabled lottery seller (or other vendor) in a wheelchair trying to provide for themselves I feel very fortunate not to be in the same situation. Then some coward scumbag comes along and does something like this to an innocent. Sad times in Pattaya. A harsh punishment needed for the attacker.
