Hence his 'open 24 hours' work ethic.

Nice pointing technique, seems this isn't his first go.

Oh, what a shock ( pun intended )........ beside, that'll teach him to be running around at 4 am where

everybody is a suspect.....

Why is his face blurred out? He is 34 not a child. Are they now going to catch the intended receiver?

One copper has his hand over the guys shoulder, as if it was a family photo !

Another Copper on the right has one of those uniforms which had to be made as a "special" order whilst he gets fit for duty.

Not to highjack this thread but when I click on the Thairat link I am getting and Thai version of the story. I do not see any option to change to English.

Am I doing something wrong ?
