The footage was posted with the message: “Haaa, she’s naked now. They’ve grabbed her now. Grabbed her now. Wow. #FreeVisa”. The clip quickly circulated online and generated significant discussion on social media.

The incident took place near Surin Beach on Srisoonthorn Road in Cherng Talay, Thalang district, Phuket. According to the video and witness accounts, the foreign tourist was completely unclothed and appeared to be either intoxicated or under the influence of drugs and in a distressed state.

She was seen walking on the road, shouting loudly, before entering a nearby massage shop where she caused further disruption and attacked a woman. Staff at the shop and a foreign man attempted to cover her with a towel, but the woman reportedly removed it and continued behaving aggressively.

Witnesses said the woman’s actions alarmed local residents, business operators and tourists in the area. The individual who shared the video stated that she had been travelling alone and appeared intoxicated.

According to witness accounts, the woman moved around businesses near Surin Beach causing disturbances, attempting to assault people, grabbing one person by the hair, striking vehicles and chasing members of the public. Concerned residents subsequently contacted authorities for assistance.

Officers from Cherng Talay Police Station and relevant agencies attended the scene following reports of the disturbance. Authorities approached the situation with caution before successfully bringing the woman under control.

She was then taken to Cherng Talay Police Station to calm down while officers began inquiries into the cause of her apparent distressed or erratic behaviour. Police are also considering what legal action may be appropriate under Thai law.

The Daily News reported that the investigation remains ongoing and further details have not yet been released by authorities on the woman’s name or nationality.

The lack of uncensored video and nationality,

hurts our enjoyment of this incident.

Still less crazy than some of the women I know !! 😂

Gawd, the Thais can be so prudish and childlike. Don't like to come down on them, but what with all the stuff that goes on here, and everybody is naked and has sex (gawd forbid), but as soon as one shows some flesh!

I cannot put it another way but this 😴

Sounds like she was repeating some Semitic language such as Arabic or Hebrew, but I couldn't make it out fully. What a crazy lady. How did she end up in Thailand I wonder..

The mentally ill are attracted to Thailand?

Maybe she got confused. With so many Chabad Centers in Thailand, she thought Thailand was the promised land. Also it could be the similarities between the Thai and Hebrew alphabet.

I believe her genitalia was hanging down like Gene Autries saddle bags.

"The footage was posted with the message: “Haaa, she’s naked now. They’ve grabbed her now. Grabbed her now. Wow. #FreeVisa”

As usual the pointing finger and the ill-informed / low-IQ message. What has this got to do with free visas?? The immature pointing finger saying "haa, you have been grabbed now" does not say much for the poster. Pulling people down will never raise you up.

It does... a few years back some woman stripped and was wandering around in traffic. My muddled mind cannot give you date, but did happen....

Funny what mind cooks up regarding mental picture of the woman... will she have Angelina's bod, or maybe that sumo style Eastern European expanse...

She asked for a happy ending massage and took off her clothes before, but had to wait too long...

Don't do drugs in Thailand, or anywhere. She clearly is having a psychotic episode brought on by something......

Been a few incidents like that in Pattaya, the one you reminded me of was on Sukhumvit. around January 2022.

Saw or watched?

Without seeing the video, I am not able to comment,

I wonder if she has been prescribed medications for a mental condition but has not been taking them. Or she’s high on some unprescribed drugs. Either way, drugs are likely involved. That’s my uninformed guess.

This type of behavior happens far to offend, going naked boom boom, fighting..so I'm not saying mental issues...it must be alcohol and/or drugs, and if people know what they are getting.

I wish people using their cameras would learn how to use the focus control. That video is useless.

Nonsense. Everybody is not naked and having sex in public.

Can't be a Brit she looks to thin.

I agree, there's far too many people here and in other areas of the media jumping on the ridiculous "mental issues" bandwagon.

Then she would be a HE

Obviously she is having mental health breakdown and Thai police will actually get her to medical help ,, and unlikely to prosecute her ..

But in UK the police would beat her up, taser her , arrest her and prosecute her and she would not get any help from NHS mental health team... This is a Government policy supported by NHS and police in UK its unjust and evil..
