Man Driving a 6-Wheeler Stops to Refuel, Hears a Noise, and Collapses Upon Discovering a Tragedy
At 6:00 AM on August 5, 2567, Lieutenant Kriengkrai Srimai, Deputy Inspector of Investigation at Khlong Luang Police Station in Pathum Thani Province, received a report of a fatal accident involving a 6-wheeled truck running over a person. The incident occurred at a gas station along the inbound Phahonyothin Road in Khlong Nueng Subdistrict, Khlong Luang District, Pathum Thani Province. Authorities immediately rushed to the scene, accompanied by rescue teams from Thakhong Municipality, volunteers from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation, traffic police from Khlong Luang Police Station, and a forensic doctor from Thammasat University Hospital.
At the scene, near the second fuel pump, they found a white Hino truck with the license plate 70-5202 Phitsanulok, fully loaded with goods, parked at the station. In front of the pump, a station employee was found dead with head injuries caused by being run over by the truck's wheels. The deceased was identified as Mr. Sotun, a 51-year-old Myanmar national.
Mr. Krisana, the 46-year-old truck driver, stated that he had stopped to refuel with 2,000 baht worth of diesel. After completing the refueling, he personally closed the fuel cap, while his wife scanned to make the payment. Once the transaction was completed, he drove off, only to hear a noise that sounded like the vehicle had run over something. Upon inspection, he found that he had run over the station employee. He speculated that the employee may have fainted or fallen, as it was the rear wheels that caused the fatal injuries. His truck, loaded with 9 tons of bamboo shoots from Phitsanulok, was en route to the Rama 2 area. The deceased was likely the person who scanned to process the payment.
Lieutenant Kriengkrai Srimai, the investigating officer from Khlong Luang Police Station, stated that they had recorded the scene and interviewed the driver involved in the incident. The driver has been summoned for further questioning and to press charges. Meanwhile, volunteers from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation have transported the deceased's body to Thammasat University Hospital for a post-mortem examination, awaiting the family's retrieval for religious rites.
