Albertosez Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Pity the bike didn't trap both of them long enough for a Cement Mixer to plough over both of them - which just happened to be coming down the hill in the opposite direction - leaving just enough body in tact to make an ID possible ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripper15 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 This is just something wrong about a Russian being the one pointing the finger.

Doc Blake Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 From the size of the Russian lady, I'd say she probably did a little Rusky tap dance on the drivers leg! She might have also squeezed the location of the excaped perp out of him just as the police arrived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushwacker Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Is it possible she looked at the MC driver and he got scared and fell off the bike? Just saying .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen terry Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 It wouldn't surprise me if the woman has to pay for medical treatment and loss of earnings - hence the terminology -'suspected bag snatch'. The Thai man would say, if she hadn't waved her bag at me I wouldn't have lost control. But the other escapee rather spoiled that scenario - maybe you can think of his excuse -the lady was drunk and I ran for help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theduderule Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I believe they will get a 200 Baht fine.(and she would have to pay the medical cost for the leg- "due to heavy bag we fall..I hurt leg") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haikurd Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Lots of folks laughing, but bag snatching from a moving vehicle should actually be classified as violent assault, several people I know (all women) have been seriously hurt by this in various countries, one dragged behind a car for several meters and her entire left side virtually skinned, one had her arm and shoulder wrenched - took a couple weeks for the bruising to go down, that jarred shoulder may give her problems for a long time. It is not like pickpocketing or just stealing a bag, the person who is targeted is often hurt. Women often wear their bags with the strap across their bodies rather than on one shoulder, exactly to make them less of a target for a bag-snatcher - but then if someone grabs it and pulls you cannot get out of it. Better to carry it in your hand and not have too much money, don't wrap the strap around your wrist either, and walk against traffic. Better to lose your bag then get hurt.
