A well-dressed man was discovered dead, hanging from a high-voltage electricity pole, much to the shock of a local vendor who witnessed the disturbing scene. The vendor described the man as looking sad while drinking soda by himself.

 

This morning at 8 AM, on July 10, Aditep Tangkrothok, the Deputy Inspector of Nakhon Ratchasima Police Station, was alerted about a suicide near a store in the city center. Upon reaching the area on Suebsiri Road, the police found a man, dressed in a purple shirt and shorts, hanging about 8 meters off the ground using a telephone wire. Assistance to retrieve the body was given by officials from Nakhon Ratchasima's Provincial Electricity Authority and the Sawang Metta Korat rescue team.

 

There was no evidence hinting towards any criminal activity and the man, who was roughly 35 to 40 years old, was confirmed to have been deceased for a minimum of two hours. The man had 309 baht (around $8.5 US) and an amulet in his pocket, but no form of identification. The body was later sent to Maharaj Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital for examination to further the investigation into this unusual death.

 

 

A local drink vendor, Aey, recalled seeing the man the previous day. She described him as handsome and seemingly depressed. Early this morning, she noticed him drinking a soda alone before he ended his life by climbing the pole. The police aim to identify and notify the man's relatives and are diligently working to understand the reason behind this unfortunate event.

40yrs is not very old,  far to early to take the elevator.   He was probably cheated and lost everything.
