The GPS device which was at first thought to be a bomb.

PHUKET: -- Phuket̕s Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) unit were forced to clear the car park of a hotel̕ in Phuket Town yesterday (April 29) after a suspicious device was left there. The device turned out to be GPS tracking device.

At 2pm, Phuket City police were called to investigate a suspicious item spotted in the car park of the Royal Phuket City Hotel in Phang Nga Rd, Talad Yai.

The police arrived at the car park together with the EOD unit and sealed off the area. The EOD were shown a black object with a light flashing lying on the ground.

When examining the device more closely they found that it was a GPS device with its batteries and magnet covered with duct tape.

Police believe that the device had been taped underneath a car or truck which had been parked in the car park and had fallen off when the vehicle was moved.

Police will investigate to find out where it came from.

Somebody following somebody? Wife? Husband? Police? Intriguing. ph34r.png

Certainly looks that way and with extra battery power to make it last the distance!

Maybe the Police can keep it and once the figure out how it works, use it to find out how they got to the position they currently are!
