A five-year-old boy suffered a crushed hand when it got
stuck in a cheese grinder at a central Pattaya restaurant.
The boy, identified only as “Tao,” had been allowed by
his aunt, Bupha Phalahon, 45, the owner of the Globetrotter restaurant on
Beach Road, to grind a block of cheese. The boy pushed the block of cheese
too far into the machine, getting his hand stuck. Four of his five fingers
were mangled.
Hearing the boy’s screams, employees turned off the
machine and Bupha rushed her nephew to the hospital where he had to be
sedated in order to cut the machine off his arm.
