American Man Arrested for Robbing Donation Box Outside Pattaya Police Station

So, the police acting without any complaint, just the tip-off. If he was found lying over the donation box with a knife in his back, I wonder if they would have acted so quick or just waited until someone made a complaint.

Thank goodness he was not British or we would never have heard the last of it on here 😉

Well it can't be for food he was stealing , he  can survive on that stomach for a few weeks.  But probably very thirsty.

There was only 66 baht in the donation box….

 

what is the true story here? Is it a distraction from the 36% tariff soon to hit thai exports to usa? 
 

Thai gov will lose tax revenue from reduced sales….maybe Thailand will now double the tax rate on overseas income coming into Thailand?

Why did it have to be an American? It is a crass thing to do no matter the nationality of the idiot. But, as an American expat and long time resident of Thailand, when I see one of my countrymen behaving badly I want to just kick the living crap out of him. Every time I see an article like this I hope and pray that the perpetrator is an Aussie or a Russian....just a little dig at my many Aussies friends. 😁  

According to Malcolm Americans are the only ones who do stuff like this.  He's a real genius so it must be true.

You're an idiot, Malcolm, and a bigot.

That well may be true but I would never go as low as you Americans and steal from disabled children.

You could have left out the word American. Yes, he is an idiot like many others I have encountered from other countries, including Thailand.

The Muslims in some countries would chop his hand(s).

I wonder if this would be a good "fine" for him.

Btw, after implementing his (Trump)  new tariffs Americans should pay 30% more everywhere. Even for massage.

newbee they usually onlly chop the left hand for some reason !

So go get a new ATM card..

It takes time, even when fedexed. What would you do for a week or 2 or or 4?

Some people have no one to turn to. This is a problem common to westerners who are of limited financial means and who move to the lower tier nations.

I got a credit card shipped from the USA to Thailand in about 4 business days with DHL.  

 

And this has to be one of the most degenerate crimes, even by Pattaya standards.

He could go inside the bank and use his bank book to withdraw cash, using his passport as identification.

No need for an ATM card

You presume he has a Thai account.

You assume he has a bank account in Thailand. If he is not a LTR he will not have access to a local  account.

No argument,  and you were wlell served, but some banks don't operate that way especially the low cost direct service banks.

Yes I did assume that, however if he was a tourist then losing his one and only bank card would be an issue
