Pattaya, Chon Buri:- Pattaya police arrested three Thais following a car chase late Thursday night after they allegedly snatched an iPhone from a Chinese tourist in Pattaya.


The Pattaya Police station was alerted at 10 pm that the tourist, Ren Mee Ling 34, was robbed of her iPhone 5s in front of Mike Shopping Mall on the 2nd Pattaya Road in Tambon Nongplua of Chon Buri’s Bang Lamung district.


Police were told that the three robbers were riding a red and white Honda Wave motorcycle with Nakhon Phanom license plate.


After learning of the incident, Pattaya police chief Pol Col Sukthat Pumphanmuang ordered all police officers on duty and police volunteers to watch out for the three suspects on all roads that could be used as an escape route.


Later on, police spotted three men speeding up their motorcycle and ran the red light at the South Pattaya Intersection heading to Khao Talo Intersection.


Police at the South Pattaya Intersection performed a car chase after the motorcycle, which later crashed into a vehicle at the Khao Talo Intersection.


Initially, police arrested two suspects at the scene while the other ran to hide behind a nearby building. The two who were arrested at the crash spot were identified as Anuwat Wongkhamharn, 33, and a 16-year-old teenager, whose name was withheld.


Later police arrested Ritthikrai Jingwaja, 23, from behind a building.


The tourist later came to the police station and confirmed that one of the three snatched the phone from her hand while she was walking to her hotel.


Police said Ritthikrai has just received a royal pardon and he was released from a prison on April 3 after he was jailed for snatching valuables from a victim in 2013.

Are you ABSOLUTELY sure it was a 5S? Such a critical piece of information, that must be accurate for the story. I mean! What if it was a 4? Heck no, not newsworthy then... That's last year's news!
