Security cameras caught images of two young Thai men who allegedly stole a thin gold chain from a disabled woman in central Pattaya.
Vathida Jaihom, 23, reported the theft of a necklace worth about 3,000 baht to police Sept. 28. She and another disabled woman, both of who are impaired by the effects of polio, were riding in a wheelchair-adapted motorbike-sidecar on Soi Phaneadchang 9 when the robbery occurred.
Grainy CCTV footage catches images of two young Thai men stealing a thin gold chain from a disabled woman in central Pattaya.
Stopped near the Redemptorist School for People with Disabilities, two men in their 20s rode alongside on a motorbike and grabbed the Khon Kaen native’s chain, causing her to nearly fall out of her chair.
“I am shocked and saddened by such an incident as the necklace took me many months to purchase even though it’s not worth much,” she said.
Police said they are using the CCTV image to track down the thief.
