A young man, Sarawut, 28, was arrested after attempting to rob his former workplace, a 7-Eleven store, on his day off. Wearing a helmet and wielding a knife, he tried to conceal his identity while threatening his coworkers. However, they recognized him and quickly alerted the police.

 

Led by Deputy Investigation Inspector Peerapong Yotsurang, police from Chalerm Phra Kiat Police Station apprehended Sarawut at 8 a.m. on December 1, at an unnumbered house in Suan Luang Subdistrict. Evidence collected included a knife, helmet, clothes, and shoes used in the crime.

 

Sarawut, originally from Krabi, had moved to Chalerm Phra Kiat District to live with relatives and work at the 7-Eleven. Recently, the management asked him to resign due to his drug addiction, which he had not yet done. He failed to report to work after being asked to step down.

 

 

At 1 a.m. on the night of the crime, Sarawut arrived at the store on his motorcycle, disguised with a helmet. He stole 4,800 baht before fleeing. Despite the disguise, his coworkers recognized him due to his familiar mannerisms but were too frightened to intervene.

 

After his arrest, a crime re-enactment was conducted, and Sarawut was taken into custody for further legal proceedings.

Some mothers do have -em.

Any seven eleven to choose from and he chose the one he used to work at?

UK equivalent is 'one brick short of a hod'.

 

Filipino is '99%'.

 

One fish short of a shoal, a few trombones short of a marching band, few sandwiches short of a picnic, a couple of cans short of a six-pack (appropriate for 7-11, but not between 2-5pm), a few fries short of a happy meal or a full stop short of a grammatically correct sentence (full stop omitted)

 

I need to learn a few more pejoratives from around the world.  Anyone?
