Crime Armed Robbery at Chonburi Gold Shop – Off-Duty Police Officer Injured
UPDATE Gold Heist Suspect Jumps to Death After Armed Robbery Picture courtesy of Workpoint. Police in Chonburi have closed a high-profile armed robbery case after the prime suspect, was confirmed dead following a suicide plunge from a six-storey condominium. The incident began earlier in the day when a lone gunman stormed a gold shop inside a shopping mall in Mueang District, Chonburi. Armed with a handgun, the man posed as a customer before drawing the weapon and forcing staff to hand over four gold necklaces, two weighing 10 baht each and two weighing 9 baht, totalling 38 baht in weight. CCTV footage captured the suspect, dressed in a long-sleeved dark grey shirt, wearing a pink cap and a face mask, as he calmly entered the shop and carried out the robbery. He quickly stuffed the stolen gold into a bag and fled the scene. As police officers responded to the alarm, one off duty officer, who happened to be nearby on unrelated business, attempted to intervene. He was assaulted and injured by the fleeing suspect but managed to wrestle the firearm from him. Later, at approximately 11:30, Don Hua Lo Police Station and local rescue volunteers were alerted to a man who had fallen from the sixth floor of an old condominium in the same district. The unidentified man, estimated to be around 45 years old, was found in critical condition, bleeding from the mouth and nose. He was unresponsive and later died at Chonburi Hospital. A swift investigation led by Pol. Maj. Gen. Thawatchkiat Jindakornsanan, Chonburi Provincial Police Commander, traced the man’s movements via CCTV. Officers discovered that the deceased, identified as Mr. Piyapong, was the same person who had robbed the gold shop just hours earlier. He had returned to a condominium he previously lived in over a decade ago and leapt from the sixth floor in an apparent suicide. A subsequent search of the suspect’s home uncovered a large number of debt collection letters, suggesting he may have been suffering from severe financial stress and personal issues. Police believe this may have been the motive behind the robbery. Authorities are now working to trace the missing gold, which was not found on the suspect at the time of his death. Investigators are reviewing his movements to determine where he may have hidden the stolen jewellery and are preparing to interview family members for further clues. “We are confident that the suspect in the gold robbery and the man who jumped from the building are one and the same,” confirmed Pol. Maj. Gen. Thawatchkiat. “All evidence, including CCTV footage and vehicle registration, aligns conclusively. We are now focused on recovering the stolen gold and returning it to the rightful owner.” The case, though closed in terms of criminal prosecution, leaves behind unanswered questions regarding the final moments and mindset of a man seemingly driven to desperation.

Report Thai Health Minister Launches Raids on Cannabis Shops Over Cannabis-Infused Sweets
as oppossed to .... Can alcohol affect your sense of smell? Several scientific papers assume that long-term drinkers as found in those with an addiction problem, experience significant, even permanent, loss or inhibition of their senses. To date, researchers have shown deterioration in eyesight, smell, taste, and coordination in people who frequently drink too much alcohol. Does alcohol affect your body's smell? Alcohol triggers chemical reactions in the body producing diacetic acid and acetaldehyde, both of which cause a distinct smell. and............ don't forget "Beer muscles" is a humorous term, not a real physical condition. It refers to a large belly that some people associate with excessive beer drinking, implying it's a result of the beer rather than actual muscle growth. It can also refer to an aggressive attitude developed after drinking Light 'em if you got 'em ! -
