An incident occurred at a construction site near the Nonthaburi Provincial Stadium in Bang Krang Subdistrict, Mueang Nonthaburi District, where scaffolding and formwork collapsed, leaving one female worker dead and another injured.

 

Police officers from Bang Si Muang Station, along with rescue teams from Phra Nang Klao Hospital and Bang Krang Municipality, were called to the scene at 10:00 on the morning of December 28. Upon arrival, authorities discovered scaffolding and debris scattered at the site of an under-construction building.

 

The deceased, identified as 27-year-old Ms. Radna Ton, a Cambodian national, was pulled from the wreckage and efforts were made to revive her through CPR. Tragically, she succumbed to her injuries shortly after. Another worker, a female Myanmar national, sustained injuries and was rushed to Phra Nang Klao Hospital for treatment.

 

Preliminary investigations revealed that the workers were operating on the ground floor when the accident occurred. The formwork was being dismantled on the sixth floor fell and struck scaffolding on the third floor, causing both the formwork and scaffolding to collapse onto Ms. Radna and her colleague below.

 

Heartbreakingly, Ms. Radna’s husband, who was working on the same site, collapsed in tears as he cradled her lifeless body, overwhelmed by grief. Colleagues had to support him as he struggled to come to terms with the loss.

 

Police have documented the scene and conducted initial interviews with witnesses. Further inquiries will be held with workers and site supervisors to determine the cause of the incident and assess potential negligence. The deceased has been transported to the Institute of Forensic Medicine for a post-mortem examination.

 

Authorities have pledged to investigate thoroughly to ensure accountability and prevent future tragedies at the construction site.

Or comprehension isn't your strongest suit.

And a very valid point at that.

I think you missed the point, Nick.
