rooster59 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Police hunt for ‘cardboard box-head’ failed Patong gold shop robber Eakkapop Thongtub PHUKET: Police believe that a man who broke through a wall to rob a gold shop in Patong before dawn yesterday (Sept 9), may be a foreigner. Officers led by Patong Police Deputy Chief Lt Col Somsak Thongkleng inspected the scene, at the Yaowarat Namchok gold shop on Phra Meita Rd, yesterday morning. “The security CCTV footage at the shop showed a tall man, who stood about 1.8 metres tall, spending about 30 minutes breaking through a brick wall at the back of the shop at about 5:30am,” Col Somsak said. When the man entered the premises he was wearing a cardboard box on his head to prevent his face being caught on camera, Col Somsak added. However, the would-be thief failed to open the safe, which stands two metres tall and two metres wide.

Anthony5 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Knowing Thai construction quality, he probably didn't have the intention to break through the wall, he just leaned on it and fell through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
