In a startling incident, a group of reckless teenagers was observed hurling stones at a train in the vicinity of the Airport Link Rama 9 station, putting passengers at significant risk.

 

This occurrence has caused widespread alarm and captured the attention of online users, as a video shared by the popular Facebook page Drama-addict documented the harrowing experience of one passenger aboard the train, reported Daily News.

 

The footage exhibits a gang of youngsters giving chase to the train and relentlessly pelting it with objects, prominently stones. Despite the desperate pleas from passengers, who shouted that the police were on their way, the youths persisted in their actions. It is worth noting that a substantial number of passengers were present on the train during this distressing episode.

 

 

Accompanying the video, Drama-addict implored the relevant authorities to take immediate action, emphasizing, "We urge the relevant agencies to address this matter promptly... It poses a grave danger to train passengers. Location: Suvarnabhumi Station, near the Airport Link Rama 9 station."

 

While the post garnered considerable attention and drew criticism for the exhibited behavior, no reports have surfaced regarding the events leading up to this incident or the underlying causes behind the reckless conduct of this particular group of youths. The public anxiously awaits further updates as authorities investigate and implement appropriate measures to prevent similar incidents from recurring.

 

We thank Drama-addict for providing the valuable information and footage.

Skummy toe-rag kids exist the world over sadly, not always just the spawn of skummy toe-rag parents either.  Zero respect for authority, anyone or anything.  Go and play in the traffic.

Maybe gun turrets should be mounted on the train cars.

 

Stones today, molatav cocktails tomorrow?

 

Seriously, why would anyone throw stones at a passing train? Figure out the motive.

They had fun, there was peer pressure to join in, just letting off steam, initiation into a gang, the train had it coming, practice for cars, trucks, busses, vans, etc...

That's sort of what I implied. Indoctrination on how to operate a turret gun.

Unless that section of road was closed, they were.

It looks and sounds like they were focusing on one target, either a member or members of a rival troop.
