Several serious charges filed against a crazy man driving a 6-wheeled truck and crashing into a car


Police have filed several serious charges against a man who was driving a 6-wheel truck and crashed into a car, injuring one person and killing another.

In the case of a crazy man driving a 6-wheel truck, crashing into cars and people on the road in the area of ??3 police stations: Tha Ruea Police Station, Khlong Tan Police Station, and Thong Lor Police Station, the Tha Ruea Police Station tried to intercept him, but the man refused to stop the car and fled on the expressway to Bang Phli District, Samut Prakan Province, where he jumped into the water and dived into a pipe to escape. He then tried to end his life with a rope before the police helped him and took him to the hospital.

The latest, Pol. Col. Witthawat Chinkam, Commander of Metropolitan Police Division 5 (MPB 5), revealed that the incident occurred at approximately 1:00 p.m. on At Narong Road in the area of ??Tha Ruea Police Station. The perpetrator hit a pedestrian crossing the road, causing injuries, and fled. When the police were notified, th
ey tried to chase him, causing him to hit other cars on Rama IV Road in the area of ??Thong Lor Police Station and nearby areas. When the officers followed him, the perpetrator made a U-turn at Kluai Nam Thai Hospital, which is in the area of ??Khlong Tan Police Station. At that point, he hit another motorcycle, injuring one person and killing one person, before fleeing on the expressway to Bang Phli, before being tracked down and eventually arrested.

Pol. Col. Witwat said that the perpetrator is currently under medical care. The Tha Ruea and Bang Phli police stations have arranged for officers to take care of him first because the suspect jumped into the canal, swam for almost 2 kilometers, and hid in a drain. During that time, the suspect had two sharp metal objects as weapons. The police tried to negotiate and persuade him to surrender, but he refused. After a while, when he saw that he was quiet, they went to check and found that he had hanged himself with a rope. They took him out. At that time, he was
still breathing, but his breathing was shallow, he was unconscious, and he could not talk. They took him out and coordinated with rescue workers to send him to the hospital. They have coordinated with the hospital to check for drugs in his body.

All evidence has been collected, and it is regrettable that one of the injured in the Khlong Tan Police Station area has died. Pol. Lt. Gen. Thiti Sangsawang, Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police Bureau, is concerned and has ordered the arrest of the suspect and legal action for all charges found. Initially, the Khlong Tan Police Station area will charge the suspect with reckless driving causing death and fleeing, and reckless driving causing serious injury.

Meanwhile, Tha Ruea Police Station has charged the driver with reckless driving causing serious injuries. Thong Lor Police Station has charged the driver with reckless driving causing damage to another person’s property and obstructing an officer. Other charges are under investigation. If any are found, furth
er information will be provided.

Pol. Lt. Col. Witwat said that initially, after talking with his colleagues, he learned that the perpetrator had just started working here and was not yet very familiar. As for his behavior regarding drugs and drinking, there was no evidence. A search of his car did not find anything illegal. However, a background check revealed that he had been arrested in November 2017 in Phuket Province on charges of drug possession.
