10,000 Baht stolen from English Man at ATM Machine.

 

 

A story now that is related to the bar crackdown currently going on here in Pattaya. On Friday Night the girlfriend of Mr. Nigel Willard aged 45 from England was arrested by Police at a Karaoke Bar in Soi Chayapoon in Central Pattaya. The woman manages the bar which was found to have an expired license. Mr. Willard went to an ATM machine only 100 meters away from Pattaya Police Station on Pattaya Beach to withdraw 10,000 Baht to cover a bond which he was intending to pay to secure her release from Prison pending a court appearance. Mr. Willard whose mobility is restricted was about to take the cash from the machine when, what he described as a Ladyboy, approached from behind and snatched the money from the machine and then fled on a motorbike in the direction of South Pattaya. Descriptions of the suspected thief and the motorbike, a Black Yamaha Meo, were given to Police, who are now attempting to track down the transsexual.

You must be aware of your surroundings at all times, take no chances. Lets all learn form this. We all have to be aware after a few beers your response time is affected.
