Nongprue police arrested a Bangkok man for stealing a car and trying to sell it on Facebook for 50,000 baht.
Waranyu Sornlek was taken into custody Oct. 3, just hours after he allegedly took the car belonging to Konlayuth Dendung, 45, from a public-housing project on Naklua’s Chaiyapornwitee Road.
Waranyu then tried to sell the car on Facebook, but police were the ones who showed up to buy it after making an appointment to meet at Pattaya’s Rungruang Village.
The suspect told police he had been at the housing project to see a friend around 11 p.m. the night before when he saw Konlayuth’s house and car keys still in the door to his apartment. He took the keys and used the alarm remote to find the vehicle before driving away.
