Thai Rath reported on the arrest of a man who robbed a gold shop in Pathum Thani, north of the Thai capital Bangkok, who was wearing a white singlet and yellow flip flops.

 

He threatened female staffers with a knife then fled on a white and pink Honda Wave with 29 gold necklaces worth 870,000 baht.

 

Isaret Jitsing was captured just five hours later yesterday at his wife's house in Soi Mitmaitree 3 in Bangkok.

 

He had already pawned off 6 of the necklaces to pay his debts and the other 23 were recovered along with his clothes and the bike.

 

Khukhot police chief Pol Col Manaswet Thong-im said the arrest was completed with the help of the Pathum Thani provincial police and Region 1 cops.

 

The suspect had cased the Aurora shop in Sawai Pracharat Klong 4 Road noting that it was staffed by just two females. 

 

He took the plates off his motorcycle before the robbery then put them back on after. 

 

He has been charged with armed robbery using a conveyance.
