15-Year-Old Drowns After Exhaustion Overcomes Him in Rayong Pond
Picture from responders. A 15-year-old boy drowned in a pond in Rayong while swimming with friends. Despite his friend’s desperate attempt to save him, he was unable to hold on and had to let go, leading to the boy’s death. The incident occurred at 16.00 on December 14 at a pond in Moo 1, Bang But Subdistrict, Ban Khai District, Rayong Province. Pol. Lt. Apichart Gonetsuwan, investigating officer of Nong Krub Police Station, received the report and arrived at the scene with local rescue teams. The pond, located in the middle of a rice field and approximately 5 metres deep. Over 50 villagers gathered to witness the rescue efforts. Divers from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation took 15 minutes to locate and retrieve the body of the victim, a 15-year-old boy. Police and medical examiners found no external injuries on the body, and preliminary findings suggested drowning. The body was sent to Ban Khai Hospital for a detailed autopsy. Another boy, a friend of the deceased, recounted the events leading up to the tragedy. According to him, the group of four often visited the pond. Normally, he and two other friends swam while the victim stayed out of the water playing on his phone. However, on this day, after lunch, the victim decided to join them in the water. He suggested they swim across the pond, and everything went smoothly at first. But on their way back, the victim began to struggle in the middle of the pond, saying he was exhausted. He started to sink, and the friend tried to grab his hand to pull him to safety. Unfortunately, the friend also began to lose strength and had to let go to save himself. “I had no choice but to let go. If I didn’t, I would’ve drowned with him,” the friend said. The victim’s father, Mr. Krit, 39, arrived at the scene shortly after being informed of the incident. He identified his son’s body and provided initial testimony to the police. He stated that his son, the eldest sibling in the family, typically visited the pond with his friends but rarely went into the water. “I heard about the incident around 15:30 while I was at work. I immediately left to come here. My son never liked swimming, and this was the first time he joined his friends in the water,” Mr. Krit said. Police from Nong Krub Station will conduct a thorough investigation to ensure all legal protocols are followed. Once the autopsy is completed, the family will be contacted to retrieve the body. -- 2024-12-15 -

Man Threatens Wife with Knife, Attempts to Burn Down House in Udon Thani
Picture from responders. Police in Udon Thani responded to a tense situation on December 14, involving a man who had taken his wife hostage, threatening to kill her with a knife and set their house on fire. The incident occurred at a house in Soi Ngamdee Sinitphon, Ban Bo Nam, Moo 7, Moo Mon Subdistrict, Mueang District, Udon Thani. Authorities were alerted by neighbours, prompting officers from the Na Kha Police Station and nearby Mueang Udon Thani Police Station to rush to the scene. The suspect, identified as Mr. Phang, 46, was found barricaded inside a neighbor’s single-story house armed with a knife and a garden hoe. Despite efforts by officers and his wife to negotiate with him for over an hour, he refused to surrender. Eventually, Pol. Lt. Col. Wikhnes Suea-Trong and his team used a taser to subdue Mr. Phang and bring the situation under control. He was immediately taken to Udon Thani Hospital for evaluation. Authorities confiscated the weapons found in the house. In a brief statement after his arrest, Mr. Phang claimed, “I’m not on drugs. There’s someone hiding in the bathroom constantly insulting me.” Despite his denial, police observed signs of delusion consistent with drug use. Ms. Laddawan, 46, the suspect’s wife, told reporters that her husband had recently returned to Thailand from working in Israel on November 3. Friends had warned her that he might be using methamphetamine. Since returning, he exhibited erratic behaviour, often talking to himself and claiming people were trying to kill him. Earlier that day, Mr. Phang accused Ms. Laddawan of conspiring against him and attempted to strangle her. She managed to escape and seek help from neighbours. However, her 66-year-old bedridden mother, Mrs. Sunan, was still inside the house. In a dramatic turn, Mrs. Sunan, who is immobile, climbed onto the roof to escape the chaos. Police later assisted her down safely, leaving the family relieved but shaken. A local neighbour revealed that both Mr. Phang and Ms. Laddawan had called for help earlier. Mr. Phang requested beer, saying he needed it to calm down, prompting the neighbour to leave a bottle outside the house. Ms. Laddawan then called, begging for assistance to escape her husband, who was trying to break into her room. The neighbour expressed disbelief at how Mrs. Sunan managed to climb onto the roof despite her physical condition. “It’s as if she had some special strength from fear. I didn’t think she could even walk,” they said. The incident is believed to stem from stress and possible substance abuse, with Mr. Phang reportedly struggling with financial and family issues after his return from Israel. Authorities are investigating further. -- 2024-12-15
