Swedish man caught-up in South Pattaya Necklace Snatch

PATTAYA:--A Swedish National and his Thai Girlfriend were caught-up in a necklace snatch incident in South Pattaya on Thursday afternoon.

The victim, Mr. Mats Patrik Lybom aged 45 was traveling on his motorbike with his girlfriend Khun Sorn aged 33 from Surin Province on Pattaya Second Road close to Soi 17 when two Thai males approached from behind on a further bike and attempted to snatch a gold necklace from around the neck of Mr. Lybom who was traveling as passenger. This caused both bikes to fall on to the road slightly injuring both victims.

Luckily passers-by saw the incident take place and were able to detain the two suspects who were later found to be aged only 15 and 16. Both boys, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were taken to Pattaya Police Station along with the victims.

Checks revealed that the 15 year old suspect was currently on Police Bail in relation to a previous necklace snatch.

Either it is the guys first trip to LOS or he is a dunce. I compare this to leaving the keys in your car with the engine running.

No excuse for this behaviour

When you are in a poor country why would you go around flaunting you have money? This has been said over and over and people still wear expensive gold necklaces. This guy even put it back on by the looks of the pictures in the police station.

It is like sitting in front of a group of starving ethiopians and eating a steak dinner.

You say there is no excuse for this behaviour (presumingly meaning the kids) however I say there is no excuse for promoting these types of crimes.

I wear a gold chain. If they want it, then they can go for it. thumbsup.gif but not bleat about their hospital bills eh. If a gun involved, hmmmm, they can have it. laugh.png

Nice one blame the victim why dont you....as regards a poor country, have you ever seen the number of Merc's BMW's, and new cars etc running around Thailand ?....dont remember the seeing numbers I have seen in Thailand in Ethiopia..whistling.gif

Stop being a apologist....the two little criminals should be taken out to the back of the Police station and the sh*t kicked out them...its apologist's like you which enable criminals, blaming everyone else for a persons actions, I am quite suprised you havent suggested that the reason they turned to crime is because they were not breast fed as babies...whistling.gif
