A Thai man was found dead in a pond in Chonburi yesterday, May 10th, after leaving a drinking party. Police suspect that the man might have waded into the water to cool himself off and drowned.

 

Huay Yai Police received a notification of the victim around 8:30 PM yesterday and rushed to the incident scene with rescue workers from the Sawang Boriboon Thammasathan Foundation.

 

The authorities arrived at a pond located in the Khao Mai Kaeo sub-district of Banglamung district, Chonburi. The pond had an elevated wooden cabin built on top of it, Pol. Col. Surakit In-um, superintendent of the Huai Yai Police Station, told The Pattaya News.

As one does?

The Thai police should start using phrases like "death through misadventure" as it would sound a lot better than these swift off-the-cuff explanations about what might have happened like "Yeah, he might have been too hot and boozed up, so could have just gone to cool off in the water... and promptly drowned." Off to the next situation to give a armchair explanation to and minimize the paperwork and investigation.

 

Just sounds so amateurish with the speculation.
