A thief dressed as a FoodPanda delivery rider struck a well-known gold shop in Hua Hin on Tuesday, brazenly escaping with a haul of gold necklaces worth nearly 300,000 baht.

 

The incident occurred at approximately 1:30 PM when Deputy Superintendent of Police at Hua Hin Police Station, Ms. Pichaya Rongleua, received a report of a robbery at the Yaowarat Gold Shop on Chomsin Road.

 

Ms. Araya Kamnerd Saeng, the 58-year-old proprietor of the gold shop, said she was shaken by the incident.

 

She told officers how she was attending to customers when the suspect, described as a tall, slim man approximately 170 cm in height, entered the shop.

Those gold shops are still, and have been, easy targets but the owners not seems to care much about it, maybe this is the Chinese ways of thinking how to protect your business.

No security whatsoever, and besides that why writing about the value of the stolen things? It will invite more people to rob as they see it is worth to do it and chance to get caught is not so big... Don't mention the value to discourage robbers

 

Ok. Time to put thinking cap on.

Who in my village has a son working for food panda?

And, has he mysteriously returned back to Mom's house?????????

Hope he ditches the clothes and MB was stolen, ohhh probably not.

Kind of lax.  Reveal entire face and head before entering the shop, with door locked upon entry.

 

I guess it's good that they actually still trust people.  ????‍♂️

With a new iphone and trainers.

"I've got <deleted> food. Hand over the gold or I'll hand over the food"

Hope he made his food deliveries first 

If he had tried this in KL he would have had a security guard shoot him with a sawn off shotgun
