Sanook Thai  Caption: Couldn't steal so takes a nap

 

Sanook reported on the antics of a presumably drunk man who tried to steal from a sushi shop in Chiang Mai.

 

Having failed to do that he slept all night in his shorts in the VIP room before leaving after 5am on his motorcycle dropping his licence in the car park.

 

Clear CCTV at the Daiso Sushi restaurant on the 700th Anniversary of Chiang Mai stadium road revealed the incident that started around midnight Monday. 

 

After parking his bike beside the restaurant he broke in at the rear then tried and failed to smash his way into an accounts' office. 

 

He smashed a door leading upstairs in a rage then after sleeping for a while on a table removed his clothes except for his shorts and turned the air and light on in the VIP room where he spent the rest of the night as if it was his own home. 

 

At 5.10 am he turned the lights out and left.

 

Sitthisak, 31, the manager discovered all this when he turned up for work in the morning and reviewed the CCTV.

 

In addition a driving licence was found in the car park and when the picture was compared to the man on the CCTV it was clearly him.

 

Mae Ping Muang police took that into evidence and dusted for prints before they issued a summons for trespass at night and attempted theft.

 

Sitthisak said the man was clearly drunk adding that at one point he had relieved himself up against a door inside the restaurant.

That's a VIP room? Same relevance as VIP buses I suppose. VIPS don't ride the bus, and VIPs wouldn't frequent a place like that.
