A tragic incident occurred last night, April 20, when a 35 year old man lost control of his high-powered motorcycle and crashed fatally, with the vehicle flung 100 metres from his lifeless body on a road adjacent to the motorway in Pathum Thani province. Police Lieutenant Pratchanant Korkhun, the investigating officer from Khlong Luang Police Station, reported no witnesses to the accident.
At the scene, the deceased was identified as Nopparat, from Pak Thong Chai district, Nakhon Ratchasima province. His body, covered in blood, was found in the middle of the road, about 100 metres away from his overturned Yamaha R15 motorcycle, registered in Bangkok.
Despite the lack of direct witnesses, Police Lieutenant Prachanant Korkhun documented the scene and coordinated with the Ruamkatanyu Foundation to transport the body to Thammasat University Hospital for further examination. Efforts were underway to notify the relatives to arrange funeral rites, reported KhaoSod.
The forensic examination would help determine the exact cause of the crash, as the police worked to piece together the events that led to Nopparat’s untimely death.
