Pattaya, THAILAND – At approximately 1:00 AM on July 19th, 2025, Mrs. Ornphin Aransot, a 50-year-old vegetable vendor at Rattanakorn Thepprasit Market, reported the theft of her sidecar motorcycle from the parking lot behind her stall. The incident occurred in the early hours of July 17th at around 4:00 AM.
The stolen vehicle is a grey-bronze Honda Wave 110, modified with a sidecar for delivering vegetables to markets. CCTV footage from the scene clearly captured the suspect, a masked man seen loitering around the vehicle before seizing the opportunity to mount the motorcycle, start the engine, and flee the scene swiftly.
Mrs. Ornphin revealed that she had accidentally left the key in the ignition, which likely facilitated the theft. She also disclosed that another motorcycle was stolen from the same location several months ago, with the culprit still at large.
The vendor has since filed a police report and urged authorities to expedite efforts to apprehend the thief, adding that the motorcycle is her family’s primary source of livelihood. Its loss severely impacts their ability to sustain a living.
Police are investigating and reviewing the CCTV footage to track down the suspect.
