Siam Rath reported on a chase and subsequent capture of someone believed to be on drugs. It happened on the normally quiet seaside island of Koh Chang.

 

Cops got a call about a man in a Nissan March.

 

He refused to stop and raced for Kai Bae where he was cornered by a gelato shop.

 

The police parked two trucks to block him in but this created 2 km tailbacks.

It was two hours before the man was in custody - he had been brandishing a knife.

 

His car had no narcotics at all.

 

Just prescription meds.

 

It appeared he was going without his meds.

The media called him a mental health patient in their headline. 

 

The whole thing took 2 hours to resolve.

Where on earth did he think he was going to be able to 'out run' or 'escape' to on Kho Chang ?
