A psychiatric patient caused quite a stir by escaping from a hospital and stealing two motorcycles, fleeing across four districts to reach his mother’s home.

 

Police from Ban Mi district in Lopburi received a report from Chakkrit Namkhot, who said his red Honda Dream motorcycle, with the registration 1กน 946 Lopburi, was stolen while he was eating at a restaurant in Ban Mi market. The suspect, dressed in hospital attire, quickly rode off with the vehicle.

 

Shortly after, hospital staff informed the police that a 31 year old male psychiatric patient had escaped from Ban Mi Hospital. Reviewing CCTV footage, the police identified the suspect fleeing the hospital at 12.54pm, yesterday, September 18, and stealing Chakkrit’s motorcycle two minutes later.

 

Despite efforts to locate the suspect, with an alert sent to nearby police stations, he remained at large. The last sighting on CCTV showed him in Moo 7, Bang Kapi subdistrict, Ban Mi district, Lopburi.

 

At around 2.05pm, a resident of Moo 7, Bang Kapi, named Aumnat, reported to the village headman that his red Honda Wave motorcycle, without a license plate, was stolen. He had left the key in the ignition near an irrigation canal in a field. Interestingly, the stolen motorcycle was replaced by another, the same one reported missing earlier by Chakkrit.

 


 

 

 

Police were perplexed as the first stolen bike was new and had a full tank of petrol, while the second was old with little fuel. They could not fathom the suspect’s motives. The police continued their search, coordinating with officers in Khok Charoen District, anticipating the suspect might head to his home there.

 

Finally, at 1.07pm, CCTV footage from the route between Ban Mi and Khok Samrong showed the suspect riding the stolen motorcycle towards Nong Mueang district before disappearing into Khok Samrong.

 

Later, a tip-off led the police to a house with no number in Moo 7, Khok Saem San subdistrict, Khok Charoen district, where the suspect was hiding. Identified as 31 year old Golf, he had changed out of his hospital attire and donned local clothes, hitchhiking to reach his mother’s home, reported KhaoSod.

 

As the police apprehended Golf, they discovered he had hidden his hospital clothes and was attempting to blend in with the locals to evade capture.
