Pattaya, Chon Buri:- An air-conditioner mechanic sneaked into a luxurious house of a farang’s Thai wife in Pattaya Friday and could not help helping himself to several bottles of luxurious foreign brand liquors. He eventually fell asleep and woke up being arrested.

Pol Maj Natthakorn Mongkolmaha, an inspector of Nong Plua police station in Chon Buri’s Bang Lamung district, was alerted of the alleged burglary at 4:30 pm Friday.

He rushed to the one-storey luxurious house in the Temperlette housing estate with other policemen.

Inside the house that has a swimming pool, the house owner, Titiya Smith, 32, and a swimming pool cleaner, Wiphaporn Sinbuathong, 29, were waiting for police.

They handed over Pattapong Arunchai, 38, who was sitting heavily drunk, to police. Seven bottles of foreign liquors were placed around him. Some bottles were opened and partially drank. Police later learned that he is an air-conditioner mechanic.

Wiphaporn told police that she was cleaning the swimming pool and she heard someone stomping feet twice. She was surprised so she decided to walk around the house to check.

When she entered the living room, she found Pattapong sleeping on the sofa only with his underwear and with the bottles of liquors around him.

Wiphaporn called her husband to capture the man and alerted the house owner to call police.

Pattapong told police in broken, drunk-like voice that he climbed into the house because he was being chased by a group of hooligans. He said he intended to hide for a brief while and would climb out.

But he saw several bottles of foreign liquors on a shelf in the living room and had a strong urge to try them.

After he had the first drink, he could not stop and he took off his clothes and lied on the sofa to watch TV. He didn’t know when he fell asleep.

This will result in raising taxes again on 'evil' imported booze. No Thai would do such a thing if this evil stuff wasn't around ! Lol.

[55Jay]

The 2 policemen in the back seem to be enjoying something more than her finger pointing.

Meanwhile, the drunk fella is still eyeing those bottles longingly.

[NickJ]

Kind of sad in a let the eat cake sort of way.

[ThailandLOS]

"After he had the first drink, he could not stop"

Sounds like he did some learning from hanging arround the farrang spots in Patts...

[skildpadden]

Are those luxury brands: Ballantines, 100 Pipers, Sierra Tequila and Swing? Yes, it is alcohol but hardly luxurious.

[janpharma]

...Thainess...

[jackanapes]

now he knows how the other half lives he may try it again a taste of good living .

[Alwyn]

"He rushed to the one-storey luxurious house".. Wrong, it's a two-story luxurious house Oh no, I got it wrong.... that's another story.

... and don't forget! The luxurious house also had a swimming pool!

[joboss]

That's just cruel.

Lining up the booze in front of him and his hands cuffed behind his back.

That's abuse of a drunks rights.

[Thakkar]

Young wife. Pool boy. Half naked drunk burglar.

Sounds like a plot to a porn flick.

[Equalizer]

looking at the pictures with a selection of STILL full alcohol i would hazard a guess he was bladdered before he got there.

[Equalizer]

Are those luxury brands: Ballantines, 100 Pipers, Sierra Tequila and Swing? Yes, it is alcohol but hardly luxurious.

And they are all still virtually full.

[dotpoom]

I't will be a good yarn to tell the boys when he gets to his first AA meting.

[wowfactor10]

I am expecting a serious hangover for the poor guy

[misterphil]

If this ever happened at my house, I would round up a handfull of ladyboys and pay them to sexualy abuse him, just like he abused the house owners liquor.

[Jim walker]

Well he had a lucky escape from the hooligans so you can sort of understand him needing a drink just hope he kept a handy 500 baht for his fine and I am sure under the appalling circumstances the house owner wont mind him having a small drink 7 bottles of whatever.

[chilli42]

Priceless! I am sure he had taken off his shoes at the front door as well.

[English 1]

Ha Ha He is Thai ......... they cannot stop until the bottle is empty and if there is another LOL!!!

[Khun Riki]

So now farang go to jail right?

[whitemouse]

In the poor guy's defence, those bottles look very nice and shiny

[hawker9000]

haha quiet a dumb robber?

Look who the dumb speller is.

[FangFerang]

Curiouser and curiouser said Alice.

This is like an episode of Dumb Pet Tricks made into a new version -- Stupid Criminal Tricks.

I have to laugh about it. I am not sure I would press charges, honestly.
