On Sunday night, a Russian couple unsuccessfully attempted to chase down a motorcyclist who had stolen the woman's purse in Muang district.

 

Alisa Makarenko informed the local tourist police that she was on a motorcycle with a friend on Takua Pa Road in tambon Talad Yai in the Muang district. Around 8:40 PM, another motorcyclist snatched her bag from her lap. The thief was notably wearing a unique blue helmet.

 

Her friend quickly gave chase, honking the horn and zigzagging through the traffic, while Makarenko filmed the pursuit on her mobile. Eventually, the thief managed to escape.

 

Makarenko's stolen purse held her glasses, motorcycle license, a comb, power bank, four debit cards, and approximately 60 baht cash, she reported to the police.

 

The police recommended that she immediately block her stolen debit cards to prevent unauthorized usage. Among these cards, three were Russian.

A unique blue helmet. Blue and yellow perhaps.  Like a certain countries flag.

Russian bank credit cards are useless in Thailand, they don't work outside Russia.
