Police and emergency responders were called to the Phimai-Chumphuang road in Rangka Yai Subdistrict, Phimai District, on the  night of November 23, where an elderly foreigner, approximately 70 years old, was found intoxicated and unconscious with a head injury. First aid was administered at the scene before the man was transported to Phimai Hospital for further treatment.

 

On November 24, the Rangka Yai village headman provided police with additional details about the foreigner’s behaviour , which has reportedly caused ongoing issues within the local community. Police and the village head, withheld the name and nationality of the man.

 

The man, who resides in the area, is said to frequently become heavily intoxicated and lie down in the middle of roads, posing a danger to himself and others. In a particularly alarming pattern of behaviour, he has reportedly been seen carrying a sword around the community and near a local school, walking menacingly and creating fear among teachers and students.

 

According to the headman, the situation has persisted for some time, prompting his Thai wife to seek a divorce. The police are aware of the incidents and are working with local authorities to address community concerns while ensuring the safety of all involved.

 

Local residents have expressed hope that authorities will take appropriate measures to resolve the situation and prevent any further disruptions.

I think the time for the authorities to take "appropriate measures" has passed.

 

If ever there was a situation that had resolved itself this was it.

Sounds to me like another ex pat that may soon be heading back to his home country to get his noggin

sorted out. IMO that would be the appropriate step.
