webfact Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 Picture: Naew Na Pattaya, Chonburi Province – On April 28th, 2023, a harrowing incident occurred at a shopping mall situated along Central Pattaya Road in Nongprue Subdistrict, Banglamung District, Chonburi Province. At 16:30, Police Captain Ying Thanya Uthong, an investigating officer at the Pattaya City Police Station, was alerted about a tragic event involving a man who had fallen from a significant height, leading to his death. Upon receiving the information, Police Captain Ying Thanya Uthong notified his supervisor, Police Lieutenant Colonel Thanaphong Photi, the chief of Pattaya City Police Station, and headed to the scene with a team of investigators and rescue personnel from Sawang Boriboon Thammasathan Pattaya. The team discovered the body of the deceased man, later identified as Mr. B., an 88-year-old German national, behind the mall's parking facility, reported Naew Na. Mr. B, was found lying face down in a pool of blood, creating a shocking and distressing sight. Authorities secured the area and determined that the point of the fall was from the fourth-floor mezzanine of the building, approximately 15 meters high. A pair of flip-flops and a hat, thought to belong to the deceased, were collected as evidence. Mr. Warachai Taphayai, a 40-year-old technician working at the shopping mall, informed the authorities that he was not aware of any witnesses to the fall. He only became aware of the incident when someone informed him about an individual falling from the parking facility. Upon discovering the deceased's body on the ground below, he swiftly reported the incident to the authorities. Police Lieutenant Colonel Thanaphong Photi directed the investigative officers to examine CCTV footage and interview nearby witnesses to establish the exact cause of the foreigner's fall. Although suicide is currently suspected as the reason, the investigation is still underway. Meanwhile, the body was handed over to rescue workers for transportation to the Police Hospital's Forensic Medicine Institute, where an autopsy will be performed to determine the definitive cause of death. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2023-04-29 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

RIP old man. At 88 the stairs going up may have worn him out. His choice and we'll never know the final reasons.
