Pattaya — In the early hours of this morning, Pattaya police employed an unexpected tactic to help pacify a Thai man who was said to be possessed—they performed an exorcism.

On November 9th, local residents on Thappraya Road in Pattaya were at their wit’s end after they failed to calm down an unidentified man, aged between 40-45 years old, who was disturbing the peace of the 4 AM night with his bloodcurdling screams.

 

The Thai man, dressed in a yellow shirt, short pants, and barefoot, was reported to have suddenly lost his composure and began exhibiting bizarre movements. Residents in the neighborhood of Grand Condominium noted that his distressing outbursts resembled a sign of spiritual possession. Uncertain of how to handle the situation, they eventually decided to call the Pattaya police.

 

Upon arrival at the scene, Pol Lt. Yutthakorn Matchima, an on-duty officer from the Pattaya Police Station, swiftly took action. He used pure holy water to perform an “exorcism,” reciting incantations and instructing the distressed man to raise his hands.

Hope he pays the 'fine' or he'll get repossessed.
