Chonburi –
A driver has been pronounced dead after he crashed his car into a power pole in Chonburi.
The Mueang Chonburi Police were notified of the accident over the past weekend on a rural road in Nongree in the early morning hours.
They and The Pattaya News arrived at the scene to find both the damaged car and the power pole.
The driver, who was later identified as Mr. Patikorn Sriwongon, 32, from Nakhon Ratchasima, was stuck inside his vehicle.
