wana Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Are there any details of how he robbed the bank? You gotta be pretty gutsy to do that as a foreigner in Thailand! Was he armed when he did it?? its amazing he got of a thai bank alive after robbing any cash ........even if it is relatively small compared to what might he might have stolen from a uk bank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evanson Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 These farang bank robbers are the strangest criminals here. I don't know how they expect to get away with such a high profile crime being a member of such a tiny minority group the climate ,the sangsom and beeya chang ,the sex ,the perpettual holiday thing that happens to farangs in thailand must have got too much for him Or perhaps the PERCEPTION promulgated on expat forums such as these that they can get away with it. They can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realize that Western murderers in Chiang Mai get sentenced to between 2 1/2 to 3 years for murder, right? there was a post earlier that said a knife and a gun were both used ,its hard to imagine the thai security guard and staff just handing over the cash if an empty handed farang just asked for it.........

hehehoho Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 It has to be true if someone posted hearsay about it. Never heard of a snatch and grab? The ways locals count out massive stacks of cash then put them into their handbags at banks here it's surprising it doesn't happen more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moe666 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Stop making excuses and putting the blame else where this guy is just CRIMINAL. People are just wired this way and doesn'r t matter the background or education. Some fine Thai police investigation here. Maybe his disguise was shaving cream and it melted by the time he got to the teller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowslip Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 basically a piece of rubbish reporting. go back to the drawing board find out wwho is who and what - if anything - they have done - even if it is one or two people would be a help.

laolover Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Its <deleted> IDIOT farang like this that are turning the thais feeling against all white foreigners. Just as it has happened in the US,UK,Germany,denmark, etc when "foreigners" commit major crimes. Drugs, muder, robberies. Thanks to blockheads like this guy, visas are are getting harder to obtain,more background checks, and more cost. Get this kind of scum back the which they came. Thailand was wide open and fun place for farang to be when I came here 25 years ago....There should be a farang court with farang expat jurists to decide the fate of J/offs like this guy. Why does it seem like there are so many english and swedes that are committing the crimes here...maybe just impartial reporting, i hope that is the case.

MaxYakov Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Another news item from 2010 about this gentleman: Mr. Wynn's accomplice has yet to be identified, however, it is hoped that Mr. Wynn will be able to help police in bringing him to justice too. How come the guy is still out and about in Chaing Mai after after an arrest in Samui a year ago? Looks like a Wynn Wynn situation for the Thai authorities! Good one! The victims might have been asking (about his arrest): 'When Wynn?'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
