A criminal in the city centre of Uttaradit, Thailand, sparked alarm when he snatched a police officer’s gun and commandeered a local resident’s motorcycle. The incident prompted a swift response from law enforcement, who quickly mobilised forces to apprehend the suspect. The incident took place at the Ban Ko Red Light Intersection in Uttaradit City at 5pm yesterday.

 

The Uttaradit Provincial Police later released an image of the alleged perpetrator, Pisanupan Teppin, who is 40 years old. Teppin was observed fleeing the scene on a white Honda Dream motorcycle with the license plate 1GK-7129 Uttaradit. He has a history of drug-related offences, specifically trading in Type 1 narcotics (methamphetamine) without a permit.

 

At the Ban Ko Red Light Intersection, the police found a modified Honda MSX 125 motorcycle without a license plate, believed to be Teppin’s vehicle. This vehicle was found toppled over and abandoned next to a police patrol motorcycle. The police officer, Chittipat Kannamang, sustained injuries to his left hand during the scuffle with Teppin. The local resident, Somphon Palprathom, from whom Teppin seized the motorcycle, was waiting for the police.
