Police probe death of Briton

PATONG: Police are investigating the death of a Briton, Stephen Harris, 46, born in Birmingham, whose body was found in his room at the Monte Carlo Hotel on Rat-U-Thit 200 Pi Rd on October 29 at around 1 pm.

Speaking to the Gazette today, Pol Lt Col Boonlert Onklang of Kathu Police Station said that, according to a doctor who made an initial examination of the body, Mr Harris’s neck and right elbow were broken.

Col Boonlert also said that Mr Harris was last seen alive at around 10 pm last Tuesday (October 26) at the Monte Carlo Hotel, where he had been a guest for about a month.

Mr Harris’s body, which is currently in Patong Hospital, is due to be collected by British Embassy staff and taken to Bangkok for an autopsy.

Let me guess, Another suicide. He broke his neck with his right arm.

[Nam Kao]

Self inflicted broken neck, sounds like suicide

[meom]

Maybe he was just dead-drunk; stumbled, fell down and broke his elbow & neck in the process.

[stroll]

Authorities are still puzzled how he managed to go back to his room after the jump.

Investigations continue...

I would warn anyone visiting the Paradise area, Patong's gay quarter, to be extremely careful. The murder occurred during the "strike". All the bars were closed and Steve ventured out to find a companion in the dark sois of the Paradise.

There are some very salient facts which I know. This is a murder without a doubt. The Police have not revealed everything, possibly as part of their investigation, so I will not post them here in case it compromises their enquiries,

BE CAREFUL OUT THERE !!!

You big tease you!

people probably want to be careful down nana at the mo aswell, just been told by a taxi driver that a ladyboy went psycho down there and slit some guys throat last night

[Nam Kao]

BoomBoom- Falang attacked?

[BoomBoom]

aye, apparently so

[Patong Bob]

All is well. The Thai police have decided it was natural causes. Massive failure of vital organs.

We'll disregard the broken neck and the elobw so badly broken it was at right angles to the arm. We'll disregard the smashed furniture and that the metal frame of the bed was bent.

Bur how can we disregard the missing money, credit cards, mobile phone, etc. ?

It is getting increasingly hard to ignore how many farangs are dying under what can be charitably called 'curious circumstances'. We have a bit of fun with these posts, but if it was one of our relatives or mates, I don't think we would be so cavalier towards another death.

let this serve as a warning to any of you who think about trying to look at your back in a mirror while jer.king off on speed.
