Teachers & Students Flee as Fire Breaks Out in Building in Pattaya School
Picture from responders. A fire broke out at Pattaya City School 8, Bang Lamung District, Chonburi, causing some chaos as teachers and students rushed to evacuate. The incident occurred in a disused learning centre adjacent to the kindergarten building, prompting a swift response from local disaster prevention officers, fire trucks, and rescue teams from the Sawang Boriboon Foundation. The Pattaya City Police Station was also called to assist at the scene. The fire, which produced smoke throughout the building, originated in the “Learning Centre for ASEAN” room, located next to the kindergarten building. Teachers urgently evacuated the students from the premises while fire crews worked to investigate the situation. Upon investigation, the source of the blaze was found under the staircase leading to the second floor, where a pile of burning paper was discovered. Firefighters managed to extinguish the flames before they could spread further. According to Mr. Montree Namkeeree, the headmaster of Pattaya City School 8, the room where the fire started had been unused for a long time. Although the door was closed, it had not been locked. Preliminary police investigations suggest that an unauthorised individual may have accessed the room, discarded a lit cigarette onto paper, and inadvertently sparked the fire before fleeing the scene. Authorities are continuing their investigation to confirm the exact cause of the incident. No injuries were reported, but the event highlighted the need for heightened safety and security measures in school facilities. -- 2024-12-25 -

Armed with search warrants from the Chiang Rai Provincial Court, the team conducted simultaneous raids: 1. Location 1: A house in Moo 4, Ban Du Subdistrict, Mueang Chiang Rai District, where four suspects were arrested — Ms. Chanantida (24), Ms. Waranya (23), Ms. Chutima (24), and Ms. Aranyarat (20). Seized items included four computers, ten mobile phones, and three barcode scanners. 2. Location 2: A house at 509/38, Moo 9, Ban Du Subdistrict, where three suspects — Second Lieutenant Suporada, Ms. Suttita, and Ms. Saranporn , were apprehended. Confiscated items included five computers, 39 mobile phones, three tablets, one router, 20 bank account books, and 25 ATM cards. 3. Location 3: A residence in Moo 13, Mae Sai District, where Mr. Natthapong (30) was arrested. Authorities seized one computer, one mobile phone, and one router. Pol. Lt. Gen. Trirong stated that the operation followed government orders to combat online gambling, which negatively impacts society. Investigations revealed complaints about online gambling platforms operating in Chiang Rai. The OK2D website, identified as a major player, had 80,344 registered members and generated 200 million baht in monthly transactions. During the raids, eight suspects were arrested, and authorities confiscated cash totaling 130,000 baht, along with substantial digital and physical evidence. The suspects admitted to being employed as administrators to handle marketing, manage withdrawals, and oversee operations. Further investigations unveiled connections to 2-3 additional gambling websites with over 200,000 users and a combined turnover exceeding 1 billion baht. A site in Mae Sai was also found illegally transmitting internet signals to neighboring countries. Authorities plan to collaborate with the Chiang Rai Provincial Police to expand the investigation and dismantle the remaining networks. -- 2024-12-25 -
