PATTAYA, Thailand – Tragedy struck an expatriate family residing in Huai Yai subdistrict, east of Pattaya, as a British businessman lost his life in an unfortunate accident within the confines of his own home. The incident, occurring in the morning of April 3, claimed the life of Gareth John Wilson, 54.



Reports indicate that the fatal accident happened when Wilson slipped and fell, tragically impaling himself on a glass door in his bathroom. Upon arrival at the scene, authorities discovered the house in disarray, with Wilson’s grieving wife and relatives present in the living room, while his lifeless body was found in the bedroom, bearing a significant chest wound.
