DerringDo Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I knew this guy in Bkk and he was always very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble if you needed something doing. Looks like life if they catch him, and at 56 life will mean life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundman Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Saturday 23rd May 2009 Suspected English Drug Dealer on the run following Undercover Police Operation. In the early hours of Saturday Morning Police and volunteers were caught up in a dramatic car chase which culminated in shots being fired, the arrest of two people and the seizure of class 1 and class 5 drugs. The case began when Police Colonel Tirapong, the acting chief of Pattaya Police led a team of undercover officers who conducted an operation in the car park of the Bar Ruk 93 Pub located just off Pattaya Third Road close to the South Pattaya Intersection. The Colonel had received information of an English National who was suspected of selling drugs here in Pattaya and he arranged to meet the target in the car park where an undercover officer would attempt to purchase drugs from him which would have been followed by an arrest. The operation did not go to plan and the target escaped in his Black Toyota Vigo as soon as he realized that he was being set-up. A dramatic car chase ensued, during which shots were fired and collisions with chasing vehicles took place. Eventually the truck came to a halt close to the Tamsamakee Temple in South Pattaya at a dead-end. The driver, later named as Mr. Troy Curtis aged 56 from England, fled into a nearby forest and could not be located. Two women inside his truck, Khun Wunpen aged 37 and Khun Anong aged 39 were arrested and joined Police who made their way to the residence of Mr. Curtis, house number 56/2 in Soi Nongprue. Inside the house, Police found a selection of narcotics including 2g of Crystal Methamphetamine, 17g of Cocaine, some Marijuana, Syringes and Bank Books. Other items were taken into evidence. Back at Pattaya Police Station the two women claimed that earlier in the night Mr. Curtis contacted the two women and requested they join him at his house. They confessed to taking drugs inside the house and were then told that they would go out to play pool in South Pattaya. Both denied prior knowledge of Mr. Curtis’s alleged illegal activities. An arrest warrant for Mr. Curtis has now been issued and Police have alerted ports and airports to ensure he cannot escape to another country.
