Accident Mango Truck Crashes in Storm, Ignites Fire on Highway
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. Heavy rain and strong winds caused chaos early morning on 27 April, when a lorry carrying mangoes crashed into the rear of a stationary trailer and truck, sparking a fire on the Asia Highway near Ayutthaya. The crash occurred at around 01.00 near kilometre marker 17, close to a highway police service area in Khlong Suan Phlu subdistrict, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya district. Police Lieutenant Samart Raksasak of Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Police Station responded to the incident along with local fire crews and rescue teams. At the scene, firefighters battled intense flames engulfing a six-wheeled lorry fully loaded with mangoes. The blaze had quickly spread to two police patrol vehicles parked nearby, damaging them, Authorities have given no details of if the police vehicles were at the scene prior to the collision or parked too close to the developing incident. It took more than 30 minutes for the fire to be brought under control. Debris was strewn across the road, including hundreds of mangoes and the detached wheel of the lorry. The trailer, which was transporting cement, showed significant damage to its rear and signs of minor fire damage. Eyewitnesses reported that torrential rain and powerful winds severely reduced visibility. One witness following the mango truck said they saw flames coming from its rear wheels moments before it lost control and crashed heavily into the trailer, reigniting a fierce fire. Mr Somporn 44, the driver of the mango lorry, said he had been transporting mangoes from Sukhothai province to Samut Sakhon. As he approached the service area, heavy rain impaired his visibility, preventing him from seeing the stationary trailer in time to avoid a collision. Fortunately, he managed to escape from his burning vehicle unharmed. Mr Nookrai 43, the driver of the trailer, stated that he had been resting inside his vehicle when he was awoken by the sound of a violent crash. He quickly moved his truck and trailer away from the flames to prevent further damage. Highway police officers at the scene confirmed that the stormy weather had created hazardous driving conditions. Thankfully, no injuries were reported. Police have collected evidence from the scene and have summoned both drivers for further questioning as they continue to investigate the cause of the incident.

Fox News Viewers Get An Uncomfortable Truth About Trump On Live TV
They continue to tell me, once or twice a month, that they have not seen a donation from me. They ask for donations in every single email, without fail. I have been getting those emails since 2010, haven't donated even one tiny satang! -

Crime Former Subdistrict Official Killed After Brutal Attack by Gang of Four in Ratchaburi
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A former subdistrict assistant headman was killed in a brutal assault after attending a monk ordination ceremony in Ratchaburi province. The fatal incident occurred at approximately 00.10 on 27 April at the entrance to Soi 6, Village 3, Ban Rai subdistrict, Damnoen Saduak district. Police from Damnoen Saduak Station, forensic officers, hospital staff, and rescue workers rushed to the scene. They discovered the body of Mr Ekkarin 36, lying face-up on the road. His head showed severe injuries from blunt force trauma and two gunshot wounds. Near the scene, officers recovered a .357 calibre bullet and found a holster still strapped to the deceased’s waist, but the firearm itself was missing. It was also reported that another man had been critically wounded by gunfire and had been rushed to Damnoen Saduak Hospital by witnesses. According to preliminary investigations, Mr Ekkarin, who had resigned from his post but continued supporting local administrative work, had attended the ordination ceremony at a nearby temple. As the event concluded, he walked alone towards his parked vehicle at the mouth of the alley. Residents reported hearing a loud commotion and emerged to find four young men assaulting Mr Ekkarin. Witnesses then heard multiple gunshots before the assailants fled on motorcycles, leaving Mr Ekkarin lying motionless. It later emerged that one of the attackers had also been injured during the scuffle. Police believe that during the struggle, Mr Ekkarin may have attempted to draw his own firearm and shot one of the assailants, only for the gun to be wrested away and used against him. He was shot twice in the head and beaten with a blunt object. The injured assailant has been placed under police guard at the hospital, pending interrogation once his condition improves. Investigators have already identified the suspects involved and will seek arrest warrants from Ratchaburi Provincial Court. Mr Ekkarin’s body has been sent to Ratchaburi Hospital’s forensic unit for autopsy to extract the bullets for further examination. Police are continuing their investigations to track down the remaining suspects and to recover the missing firearm. Adapted by Asean Now from Khoasod 2025-04-28.
