Sri Racha —

A 32-year-old gold thief was arrested in Sri Racha for stealing an expensive gold necklace, claiming he needed money for his sick mom who was suffering from fourth-stage cancer.

Pol. Col. Sakchai Suwannukul, Chief of Police at the Sri Racha Police Station, escorted Anusorn Samerwong, a 32-year-old suspect who stole a gold necklace from a gold shop in the Surasak subdistrict of Sri Racha on July 20th, while he was undergoing a reenactment on the evening of the same day.

As of press time, the suspect is charged with theft and going through legal proceedings.
