Chiew Ming (name transcribed from Thai text), a 32-year-old tourist from Szechuan, China, allegedly stole a cellphone from a Spanish tourist at Chiang Mai International Airport.

CHIANG MAI - Police have arrested a Chinese tourist who allegedly stole a cellphone from another traveler at Chiang Mai International Airport.

According to Pol.Col. Poonsap Ruamsuk, an officer at Phu Ping Police Station, a 39-year-old Spanish tourist alerted police after he lost his iPhone at the airport's x-ray security checkpoint.

Police studied CCTV footage and spotted a woman taking the Spanish tourist's phone. Pol.Col. Poonsap said police later tracked down and arrested the suspect as she returned to pick up her bag from storage in the airport.

The suspect was identified as Chiew Ming (name transcribed from Thai text), a 32-year-old tourist from Szechuan, China.

Ms. Ming confessed that she saw the Spanish man leave his phone behind and decided to steal it out of a "spontaneous urge", Pol.Col. Poonsap said.

She has been charged with theft.

i have urges all the time, if i gave into them they would bang me up for life.

Weren't the Chinese the good ones, free visas and stuff? Yeah, good choice! thumbsup.gif

NEVER NEVER NEVER, under any circumstances, admit to ANYTHING.

What is that guy wearing on his head? 

They ain't seen nothing yet....

Did she kick the cameraman's *** after this picture was taken?

 

Look at that vicious face, stare at it for 10 seconds..... YUCKbah.gif

Yes, like to ask the same question...

If I gave into some of my urges my wife would bang me up for life!

Is that the purloined phone in her hand?

Are there not more serious matters that the Thai media should be investigating and reporting on ?

Just another thief

Slightly off topic, but......

 

Mobile phone? Pffff.

 

About 10 years ago, Paula Fox, wife of one of Australia's richest men, had a bracelet worth more than $50,000 disappear via a Melbourne airport security x-ray machine.  One of the security guards was charged, can't remember the verdict.  

 

But wait, there's more.  A year or so later at Melbourne airport,  Ann Peacock, a socialite-type person, had a Cartier bracelet worth $10,000 go missing in exactly the same way.  Can't remember if anyone was charged on that one.

 

Perhaps the government should consider renaming Tullamarine to the Bermuda Triangle airport.  whistling.gif

Be the change that you wish to see in the world.
