Crime Arrest in Prachuap Khiri Khan as Armed Suspect Threatens Explosion, Grenade Fails
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. In a tense standoff in Khiri Khan, a suspect armed with an explosive device was apprehended by police after threatening to detonate it in a suicide attempt. Fortunately, the explosive failed to detonate, allowing officers to make a safe arrest. The dramatic incident unfolded on the evening of 30 April when officers from three police units, Mueang Prachuap Khiri Khan Police Station, Ao Noi Police Station, and the Provincial Investigation Division, moved in to apprehend Mr. Arthit, also known as “Tech,” aged 34, at a makeshift shelter behind house number 24/2 in Moo 10, Bo Nok Subdistrict. Police had obtained intelligence that the suspect, who had two outstanding arrest warrants, was hiding in the shelter. Upon arrival, officers called for the suspect to surrender. However, Mr. Arthit emerged in a disturbed state, shouting incoherently while brandishing a live grenade and threatening to kill himself. The arrest warrants, issued by the Prachuap Khiri Khan Provincial Court earlier this year, were for charges including attempted murder, illegal possession of explosives, conspiracy to commit a serious drug offence, and the unauthorised distribution of methamphetamine. During the standoff, Mr. Arthit reportedly attempted to detonate the grenade in an apparent suicide attempt. Miraculously, the device malfunctioned, sparing all involved. Officers were then able to de-escalate the situation, at which point the suspect surrendered without further resistance. Following the arrest, officers confirmed the suspect’s identity against the warrants. He had not previously been detained in relation to these charges. Mr. Arthit was taken into custody and formally charged before being transferred to Ao Noi Police Station for further investigation under the supervision of Deputy Inspector Lt. Col. Suthin Pratchaya.

Crime AI Police Robot Helps Catch 14 Criminals in Thailand
Picture courtesy of Daily News A cutting-edge police robot has made its mark by assisting in the capture of 14 suspects at various events in Thailand. The AI-powered Police Cyborg 1.0, equipped with advanced facial recognition technology, was lauded by the National Police Chief for its role in enhancing public safety. Unveiled at the Songkran Festival in Nakhon Pathom, the robot demonstrated its ability to identify attendees with outstanding arrest warrants. It successfully led to the apprehension of 14 individuals during its deployment. The Police Cyborg 1.0 works by integrating existing CCTV and drone footage to offer a comprehensive surveillance solution. The robot's AI capabilities include recognising faces on a blacklist, tracking suspicious individuals, and identifying weapons and potential violent behaviour. Notably, it has proven effective at events like cockfighting derbies and local markets, leading to several arrests in connection with drug offences, theft, and other criminal activities. Picture courtesy of Daily News Police Chief Pol. Gen. Kittirat Phanphet expressed his delight at the innovation, noting its potential to reduce crime and threat levels significantly. The robot serves as a valuable tool by maintaining public safety without the need for extensive officer deployment. He further emphasised that the success of this AI innovation paves the way for broader implementation, with the potential to serve as a model for other regions. As the technology continues to evolve, it promises to offer substantial support in crime prevention and community policing. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Daily News 2025-05-02 -

Community Air Force Airlifts Critically Ill Patient from Bueng Kan to Udon Thani Hospital Just in Time
Pictures courtesy of Khaosod. A critically ill patient has been successfully airlifted from Bueng Kan to Udon Thani Hospital by the Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF), arriving just in time to receive life-saving medical treatment. Air Force spokesman Air Vice Marshal Prapas Sonjaidee confirmed that the emergency mission was carried out on 30 April after RTAF medical teams received an urgent request to assist a patient whose condition required immediate advanced care. Following a swift medical assessment, the situation was deemed critical enough to warrant air evacuation. Given the geographical distance and urgency, the Air Force determined that aerial transport was the safest and fastest option. The mission was executed by the 2038 Aviation Unit using an EC-725 helicopter. The aircraft departed from Wing 23 to collect the patient in Bueng Kan before flying back to Udon Thani, where the patient was handed over to awaiting medical professionals. The operation was carried out according to pre-established emergency protocols and successfully concluded with the patient safely in the care of doctors. The Air Force highlighted the mission as a demonstration of its commitment and readiness to support the public in urgent medical scenarios. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-05-02.
