Police had set up a drug buy with Suppachai, but blew their cover before the arrest was made. He took off with police in pursuit. Police tried to end the chase by shooting out his tires, but Suppachai continued on, driving on his rims until he lost control and crashed.

Officers recovered 2,000 yaba tablets, 100 grams of crystal meth and a Thai-made gun.

Investigators will now try to flip Suppachai to find his supplier.
