New Yorker Electrocuted by Faulty Streetlight in Thailand

Thura Kyaw, a 33-year-old New Yorker visiting his long-distance girlfriend in Thailand, tragically died after being electrocuted by a faulty streetlight in the Thalang district. While walking to a seafood restaurant, Kyaw slipped on a wet sidewalk and grabbed a streetlight for support, which delivered a fatal shock due to a suspected live wire. A bystander was also briefly shocked while trying to help but managed to pull Kyaw away. Despite being rushed to Thalang Hospital, Kyaw was pronounced dead. The tragedy highlights infrastructure safety concerns in the area.
