A 29-year-old man hastily drove his pickup truck, causing it to collide, flip over, and crash at the BTS Krung Thonburi station. The vehicle sustained severe damage, and the driver tragically lost his life at the scene. His father revealed that he had been assaulted the night before.
On April 28, at 7:00 AM, Police Lieutenant Colonel Thaworn Prapansart, an investigator from the Samrong Police Station, received a report about a pickup truck flipping over and crashing at the Bangkok Thonburi Railway Station located on Krung Thonburi Road, Khlong Ton Sai Sub-district, Khlong San District, Bangkok. He quickly arrived at the scene for inspection, accompanied by volunteers from a charitable foundation and medical personnel from Chulalongkorn Hospital.
At the site, they found an Isuzu D-Max pickup truck with the license plate 2กฮ1563 from Bangkok in a wrecked state. Inside the vehicle, they discovered the body of a deceased individual named Thanakorn (last name withheld), aged 29. Officials used cutting tools to extract the body from the vehicle. The deceased was dressed in a navy blue football jersey, black and white shorts, with bruises on both sides of the neck and ankles. Upon being questioned, Mr. Pudit (last name withheld), the deceased’s father, mentioned that his son had been physically assaulted the previous night and was en route to meet with the police.
Earlier that morning at around 5:00 AM, investigators from the Phaholyothin Police Station had summoned him for further questioning regarding a previous case. The deceased had left his residence near the Victory Monument area at 5:00 AM before the accident occurred. The investigators directed officials to send the body for a preliminary examination at Chulalongkorn Hospital before permitting the relatives to proceed with the funeral arrangements.
