snoop1130 Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 A reckless high-speed car chase on the streets of Patong resulted in the capture of a Brazilian national. The man’s careless actions not only caused multiple collisions but also sent a van carrying foreign tourists careering off the road. Early this morning, a report came into the local police station about a hit-and-run incident near the Government Savings Bank Intersection in Patong in the west of Phuket. Eyewitnesses identified a white Toyota pickup truck as the culprit, with the last two numbers on the licence plate being 46. In a dramatic chain of events, police officers who were in the vicinity spotted the pickup truck and initiated a pursuit. Although they managed to corner the vehicle near Wat Patong, the driver, later identified as Marcelo da Conceicao Nascimento, accelerated and sped away. His high-speed journey up the hill was fraught with near-misses with other vehicles, reported The Phuket News. The situation escalated around the Patong City sign on Patong Hill, where the Brazilian national’s truck collided with two vans – one a Hyundai and the other a yellow-plate passenger van ferrying eight foreign tourists. The latter incident caused the van to skid off the road and roll onto its side, resulting in injuries to the driver. Despite this, the Brazilian continued his reckless care drive downhill towards Kathu.
