Accident Crash Claims Lives of Two Thai Students on Way to School

The incident occurred near the horse roundabout in Ban Lueak Municipality, Photharam District, close to a petrol station. Police and emergency services were called to the scene at approximately 07:30, following reports of a serious collision between a motorcycle and a black Isuzu pickup truck. On arrival, officers from Photharam Police Station and medics from Photharam Hospital discovered the lifeless body of one male student, dressed in college uniform, lying beside a severely damaged white and red Honda Wave motorcycle. He had sustained critical head injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene. A second student, also critically injured, was found nearby. Emergency responders administered CPR before rushing him to hospital, but despite their efforts, he later succumbed to his injuries. The driver of the pickup truck, 70-year-old Mr Prasit, told police he had been exiting a side road after filling a gas canister. As he slowed down to yield to traffic at the roundabout, the motorcycle reportedly collided with the front of his vehicle at high speed. Friends of the deceased, who were riding ahead of them in a convoy of motorcycles from their homes in Taopoon Subdistrict, said they became concerned when the two failed to arrive at school and could not be reached by phone. After retracing their route, they arrived at the scene of the crash, where they were devastated to find their friends. The police have launched a full investigation into the crash and are reviewing statements and evidence to determine the cause. The bodies of the victims have been taken to hospital for post-mortem examination and arrangements are being made to return them to their families for religious rites.

Crime Elderly Father 82, Shoots Drug-Addicted Son Dead After Years of Abuse
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. An 82-year-old man in Kanchanaburi has confessed to shooting his drug-addicted son dead in what police are describing as a culmination of years of domestic abuse and torment. The body of Mr Arthit, was discovered inside a small hut in Nong Krang Subdistrict, Bo Phloi District, Kanchanaburi Province. He had been shot twice, once near the left eye and once in the chest. There were no signs of a struggle, prompting immediate suspicion of a targeted attack. Police from Nong Ri Police Station conducted overnight interviews with the victim’s family members and neighbours. On the morning of 6 June, the victim’s father, Mr Chan, turned himself in and admitted to being the gunman. Mr Chan told police that his son, the youngest of seven children from two marriages, had become a long-term drug user. According to his account, Arthit refused to work, frequently begged for food and money from relatives and had a history of violent outbursts when denied cash to purchase drugs. Mr Chan claimed that he had been physically assaulted by his son on numerous occasions. “I couldn’t take it any longer,” he reportedly told police. “He would hit me when I didn’t give him money. I feared for my safety.” According to the confession, Mr Chan waited until his son was asleep in a small hut located about 20 metres from the family home. He then approached quietly with a firearm and shot him at close range before disposing of the weapon in nearby woodland and returning home as if nothing had happened. The murder was only discovered when locals found the body and alerted authorities. During a police reconstruction of the crime, Mr Chan expressed remorse. “I am sorry for what I did,” he said, “but I couldn’t live in fear any longer. I accept whatever punishment comes.” Police have since charged Mr Chan with murder and violations of the Firearms Act. He is being held at Nong Ri Police Station pending further legal proceedings.

The Rise of GB News and the Making of a Mini-Murdoch
Nobody can argue that GB News is largely a right-leaning channel but I'd rather have them than not. Since Sky News UK was sold to Comcast, and joined the monolith of left-leaning channels, they're the only one left. Sad to hear that the Headliners show is going. It was mostly staffed by old school, lefty comedians and was an interesting new concept. At least we still have Free Speech Nation. 😊
