Crime Woman Injured in Violent Bag-Snatching Incident in Sattahip
UPDATE Snatch Thief Arrested While Charging Phone to Gamble Online in Pattaya Mall Picture courtesy of SiamChon. Police in Sattahip have arrested a 37-year-old man in connection with a violent snatch-and-run robbery, after tracing him to a quiet corner of a Pattaya mall where he was charging his phone and gambling online using stolen money. The incident occurred in the early evening of 27 May, when a woman was attacked by a man who violently dragged her along the road while snatching her shoulder bag. The bag contained 9,000 baht in cash and a mobile phone. Security camera footage captured the harrowing moment, clearly showing the suspect’s actions. The video quickly circulated online, prompting swift action by officers from Sattahip Police Station. Investigators worked through the night to identify and track down the suspect, later identified as Mr Apichart Wongphuri, 37. Authorities discovered he was planning to flee the area via a public van from central Pattaya. However, Mr Apichart’s plan fell apart when his phone battery died. In a bid to recharge it, he entered a department store in central Pattaya and sat quietly near the toilets to plug in. Police, already scouring the area, spotted him and made the arrest before he had time to react. Mr Apichart confessed to the crime during interrogation, stating that he committed the robbery to fund his online gambling habit, buy drugs and give some money to his mother. He told officers he had been in financial desperation and specifically targeted a woman, believing she would be less likely to resist or pursue him. Following the arrest, police were able to trace the mobile phone he had stolen. He had already sold it for just 150 baht. Officers are now investigating the shop that purchased the phone as part of the broader inquiry. Before his arrest, Mr Apichart was reportedly unaware that officers were watching him. He had been engrossed in an online slot game and later complained, “The jackpot never hit, you caught me before it could!” Mr Apichart has been charged and is currently in custody at Sattahip Police Station, where he is expected to face multiple legal proceedings for robbery and related offences.

I would imagine any abuse or harassment was brought on by being an 'activist' and craving attention, rather than just getting on with life dressed as a woman. Nobody cares about you or what you think you are, until you try to force youself onto them. Pretty sure the LGB's are fed up with these freaks hyjacking their community.- 1
