Pattaya, September 5 [PATTAYA ONE NEWS] : Late on Friday Night, Police from Banglamung were called to the scene of a hit-and-run accident on the Sukumvit Road in front of the Toonglat Village involving a motorbike and an 18 wheel truck which failed to stop. Police began by inspecting the mangled wreckage of a motorbike and its driver, Khun Jaranyar aged 18, a local food vendor who was apparently hit from behind by the truck and dragged under the truck for at least 50 meters before the vehicle came to a stop for a time and then drove off. Police have received details of the truck which would have undoubtedly sustained serious damage to its front.

These instances happen all to often in Thailand. Let's hope the police put some effort into catching these runaway drivers and lock them up for a long time.

...savage! hope the mods get the culprit and hang him in public for leaving the scene ....and dragging her 50metres....otherwise, drag him under his own truck and drag him along the same road......heard of the biblical injunction of an eye for and eye....the motto of some israeli leaders in times past.....or have him pilloried like in ye olde england....or even be heheaded in public like the japanese did to the chinese in southeast asia during the wwII....

...savage! hope the mods get the culprit and hang him in public for leaving the scene

I don't think the mods have that authority, but hopefully the police will be able to handle it.
