Thai thief’s pale for love: Beauty heist and boozy escapade

[webfact]

 

Police arrested a Thai man who stole 120 packs of skin-whitening products from a 7-Eleven convenience store in the Isaan province of Surin so his girlfriend would have radiant beauty like a superstar. He also stole vodka from a Lotus’s supermarket to throw parties with friends.

 

The saga began when an eagle-eyed staff member at Lotus’s store caught the 38 year old Singha Toomkhon red-handed as he attempted to steal vodka from the store’s shelves. In a desperate bid to escape, Singha abandoned his ill-gotten gains and made a daring getaway by stealing a black-blue Honda Wave motorcycle belonging to one of the supermarket’s customers.

 

Upon learning of the incident, the store’s staff promptly filed a complaint with the Satuk Police Station. To the officers’ dismay, Singha was no stranger to them, having previously been involved in the theft of whitening products from another convenience store in the same vicinity.

The long arm of the law eventually caught up with Singha when an officer apprehended him at his residence while he was indulging in alcohol with his friends. In a surprising turn of events, Singha confessed openly to his crimes, providing the police with intricate details of each theft.

Bad journalism.

 

Satuk is in Buriram. Not Surin.

 

The article even cites Buriram News, on Facebook, as the source of the photo.
