Heartbroken Thai seeks solace in 7-Eleven robbery, demands jail time

[webfact]

 

A Thai man last night confessed to being heartbroken and insisted on being jailed after he carried out a robbery at a 7-Eleven convenience store situated within a petrol station in the Bang Khun Tian district of Bangkok.

Convenience store employees and witnesses managed to detain the 26 year old Thai man, Autsadawut Yooman, who stole money from the store at 12.10am today, December 13. They then reported the matter to Tha Kham Police Station officers to take Autsadawut for further legal proceedings.

 

Upon arriving at the scene, officers confiscated the knife that Autsadawut had used to intimidate store employees, along with 9,000 baht in cash. Autsadawut was then escorted to the police station for questioning.

During the interrogation, Autsadawut admitted to having a row with his girlfriend, leading him to decide to end their relationship. Despite having no prior criminal record, he chose to commit the robbery at the 7-Eleven, expressing a desire to be jailed. His motivation was to attract his ex-girlfriend’s attention through the act of theft.

Claim to have a undisclosed health condition and see if he can be put in a remand suite on the penthouse of one of Thai hospitals.

Stealing some diamonds from a Thai repository, sure maybe, but stealing cheetos from a 7/11 not so much

side note

Just a question about the image and the holstered firearm that officer is wearing.

Isn't there supposed to be some sort of clip-over so that somebody faster than a brown sausage can't take said firearm?

I can't speak of the two holsters visible in the picture, but there are holsters that lock the pistol in them and you cannot grab the pistol grip and just pull it out of the holster.   Some additional manipulation of part of the holster is required to extract the pistol from the holster.

A nightmare for any officer is a gun grab. Luckily today’s modern retention holsters can keep a weapon securely locked in its holster and locked onto an officer’s body, at least until you can subdue your attacker and take charge of the situation.
