Two Students arrested following British Necklace snatch in South Pattaya



PATTAYA: -- Two local students aged 15 and 16 were arrested on Saturday Afternoon following a necklace snatch from a British Man on the Sukhumvit Road where it intersects with the South Pattaya Road.

The British man, aged in his late fifties, had stopped at traffic lights, when a bike pulled up beside him and the passenger leant over and snatched his Gold Necklace worth around 20,000 Baht.

The two assailants were seen to drive off in the direction of East Pattaya where local Police spotted two men fitting the description of the two suspects. A high speed chase ensued which was brought to an abrupt end when the suspects bike hit an oncoming pick-up truck. Despite sustaining injuries, the two suspects attempted to escape on-foot but were soon apprehended by Police.

Terrible or what...

Terrible or what...

Or what? Another two aspiring criminals nipped in the bud. Hope the pickup driver wasn't injured.

No, I am not blaming the victim, but why walk around with a THB 20,000 necklace?

The way I read it he was sroped on his own bike too. Anyway, it's his constitutional right to be dumb, many will post, and it's the constitutional right of peerps to try to steal it.

Funny how they got the one of them posing with the necklace. Funny the Thai police...they can easily apprehend a couple teenage kids for petty theft but can't arrest insurrectionist like Suthep for doing untold billions of baht in damage to the Thai economy.

....couldn't resist it could you...what the hell does this have to do with the anti-government protests...!?!

and BTW, it is no-one's constitutional right under the laws of any country in the world to steal anything...!!

You suggest they let those necklace snatchers run ?

2 students?? .... well they failed for the test ....

I do, why would you not be able to carry 1 bath gold?

Ah well, I grew up in Kenya where walking around with a necklace like that will get you killed.

I thought the police comparison was obvious and looks like someone can't take some humor so early in the morning. A little cranky are we...didn't get any last nite?

The obvious inference is the police should do their jobs in BOTH cases! How dense are you people?

If not to wear it why else would anyone buy a piece of jewellery, regardless of it's value?

Perhaps you're being sarcastic but if not we know who the "dumb" one is.

I don't understand why you are trying to trivialise the offence committed by the two boys, stealing anything worth 20,000 baht is not petty.

Are the Pattaya police responsible for monitoring and arresting Suthep?

The inference is only "obvious" to someone more dense than the rest of us here.

Wear it somewhere where it is safe to wear?

Since there are so many lunatics without driver license and insurance on Thai roads, may be you should also suggest to keep your car and motorbike where it's safe e.g. in your garage.

To show off how hi-so he is...that and the Honda Wave. 555555

That is silly. Personally, I need a car to get around. I certainly do not need to attract attention with an expensive (and pretty ugly) necklace. Just common sense.

You could get around by Taxi, public transport or by foot like so many Thais do. The car is just to show off, no common sense involved .

Look, I can also make silly remarks

2 students?? .... well they failed for the test ....

Well maybe they were studying crime , and this was their first practical test

But they didnt pass

TV - the hub of silly remarks?

They will be back on the streets within a week .

That is a bright question. My shoes cost 1500Bt and many people look at them like voltures. Maybe I better go barefoot

Maybe because he is a naive westerner with very tacky fashion sense.

Why not?

EXACTLY !

I have jewellery , I wear it , Gold Chain and Bracelet.

I didn't acquire it to hide in a Drawer.

BUT , I don't go down unlit or Darkened Laneways under the Influence of Alcohol , ANYWHERE.

Caught the Thieves. Excellent . Should be more of it. Good Police work that is ..

Som nom na!

Scary to see how school students (and other teenagers) target old foreigners to get easy money by robbing or snatching them, even worse when police fine them 500 bath and a slap on the wrist
