PHUKET: -- A man was arrested after running a red light in Karon, but later found to be in possession of illegal substances. 

Sen Sgt Maj Hatthaporn Thongkhaobua of the Karon Traffic Police was on duty at a traffic light in Karon when he saw a white Isuzu pick-up truck moving from Karon toward Chalong Circle. 

The driver cruised right through a red light so the sergeant followed him.

There is nothing more frightening than ignorance in action!

The first person ever to be stopped for running a red light in Thailand and they have guns and yaba on them. What are the odds of that?
