Pattaya Beach Shrine donation box money theft caught-on-tape

PATTAYA:--Pattaya Police have released CCTV footage from a Shrine located on Pattaya Beach which shows a man stealing donation box money after he first urinated on the promenade.

The King Taksin The Great shrine is located opposite the entrance to Soi 6/1 along the Central Pattaya section of Beach Road and is popular with worshippers throughout the year. Some will leave a cash donation in, what was thought to be, a secure donation box.

He will be forgiven, because he "needed" the money.

They should enhance the guys face picture so it might help. Urinating on a spot that is a shrine of the King could also carry a 25 year jail term. Hope they catch the guy. Almost looks like a farang.
