25.09.09 Korean Tourist detained following bizarre incident in Naklua.
On Thursday Morning Pattaya Police Officers received an urgent call to
the Naklua Road close to the intersection with Soi Potisan following
reports of a Korean Tourist who was walking in the center of the road
and giving out his money to passing motorists. Fearing an accident,
members of the public detained the man and called the Police. During
this time, he collapsed and appeared to mentally break-down. For his
own safety, Mr. Kim Sun Hee from South Korea who was carrying a
substantial amount of Thai and Korean currency was taken to Hospital
for a psychiatric assessment and Korean Embassy Officials were
contacted so they could provide assistance to the man.
