A 16-year-old boy was killed in a motorcycle crash after colliding with a parked 10-wheeler truck in Chachoengsao Province early morning on December 15. The crash occurred at approximately 05:00, near Wat Wang U, Moo 5, Laem Pradu Subdistrict, Ban Pho District, at kilometre marker 10+600.

 

Police from Ban Pho Police Station, led by Pol. Capt. Theep Mailuekdee, and rescue workers responded to the scene. Upon arrival, they discovered a white Isuzu 10-wheeler truck with a flat left front tyre parked by the roadside. The truck was driven by Mr. Phongsak 40.

 

Underneath the rear of the truck was a white Honda PCX motorcycle bearing Chachoengsao license plates. Tragically, the body of Mr. Kittiwat 16, was found nearby, lying face down next to the vehicle.

 

Ms. Warinya 19, who was riding her motorcycle about 50 metres behind Kittiwat at the time of the crash, recounted the events. She stated that they had spent the evening at a friend’s house nearby. Around 04:45 Kittiwat decided to leave for home on his motorcycle, while she followed at a distance.

 

When she reached the scene, she found that Kittiwat’s motorcycle had collided with the rear of the parked truck. She immediately contacted his relatives and emergency responders.

 

Friends described Kittiwat as a diligent young man who worked part-time on weekends to support himself. On the night of the crash, he had finished his shift at around 23:00 and had gone to visit friends since the factory where he worked was closed the following day. Tragically, he never made it home.

 

Preliminary inspections revealed that Kittiwat suffered multiple fractures across his body, likely caused by the high-speed impact with the truck. Authorities suspect that he may have been riding at excessive speed when the collision occurred.

 

The victim’s body has been transported to Ban Pho Hospital for a detailed autopsy, and police are continuing their investigation into the incident.
