Hong Kong man commits suicide in Samut Sakhon

[Thaivisa News]

Samut Sakhon:- A 51-year-old man was found dead inside a Toyota Altis sedan car with burned charcoal inside on a road in Samut Sakhon’s Muang district early Tuesday, police said.

Pol Lt Itthiporn Prompinan, an officer on duty at the Muang Samut Sakhon police station, said he was alerted of the death at 2:30 am.

He and rescuers of the Karnkusol Samut Sakhon Foundation rushed to the scene and found the body of Wu Tsan Ming in the driver’s seat, which was in full reclining position. He was wearing white shirt and jeans trousers.

Itthiporn said a stove with burned charcoal was found on the floor in front of the front passenger’s seat along with half a bag of charcoal. An empty beer can was found on the car’s dashboard. When the car was found, it was filled with smoke.

Initially, rescuers knocked the windows but there was no response so they used a tool to unlock a door only to find that he was already dead.

Itthiporn also found Bt8,000 in cash and some ID cards on Wu’s body. No wounds or trace of fighting were found.

Officials believe he died about three hours before his body was found.

The car, which has a license plate from Nakhon Pathom, was found parked on the road leading to the entrance of Pak Bor Temple in Tambon Bang Krachao.

Itthiporn said police had yet to locate the man’s relatives.

Earlier, there have been several reports of foreigners taking their own life by inhaling carbon monoxide.

In one of reported incidents, a 64-year-old British citizen died early 2013 after he lit a stove inside a room of a house in Udon Thani to inhale the smoke.

Probably he was too upset about his fish imports business? RIP

Just go to Chiang Mai area and wait a few weeks for the rice farmers to burn their fields...then walk outside to breathe in the smoke...very efficient way to die...

I'm waiting for TVF members here to question/doubt the suicide claim. But, then again, victim is Asian, so they will probably accept the BIB's findings.

Nope; it's most probably a suicide...and he left a wife and 2 teens kids behind him. The loose everything with this stupid act. He couldn't manage his "affair" and his family. The wife was on depression since 2 monthes than she figure this out. Just don't know yet what's happened on monday at his job.
