A pall of grief swept across Korat city as it mourns the tragic death of its leading paramedic, known locally as “Doctor Toon.” The tragedy left the 38 year old emergency medical personnel’s life abruptly cut short following a shocking road accident.

 

Police in Korat City in Nakhon Ratchasima province yesterday received a distress call at 12.10am about an accident on a bridge near a decorated flower market intersection in Kok Krathum district. Upon arrival, a Lambretta scooter was found overturned on the bridge on National Highway 2, Mittraphap Road.

 

A volunteer rescue team frantically tried to revive the injured man, who was identified as Dr Bunluea Aongjaem, or Doctor Toon. Toon held the critical function of an emergency paramedic associated with Thep Rattana Hospital, Nakhon Ratchasima.

 

Unfortunately, the impact and subsequent severe wounds led to Doctor Toon’s untimely death. Police Major Paisarn Punrue, the duty sergeant of Po Klang Police Station shed light on their initial findings.
