The Central Investigation Bureau, led by Police Lieutenant General Jiraphop Phuridech, and the Highway Police Division, under the direction of Police Major General Kongkrit Lertsitthikul, initiated the chase. Police Colonel Boonlue Phadungthin, Police Colonel Phitcharut Kunwimonpratip, Police Colonel Man Menyaem, and Police Colonel Surasak Sitthiyai were also involved in the operation.
They were supported by Deputy Superintendent Police Lieutenant Colonel Jirapant Rujirakul and Deputy Superintendent Police Lieutenant Colonel Wisanu Kamnonmuang.
The team, led by Police Lieutenant Colonel Jirapant Maneerat, included officers such as Police Lieutenant Colonel Panthep Photthiramonthri, Police Sub-Lieutenant Sawin Somnuk, and others.

The suspect was accused of murder after allegedly shooting a loan shark, Prapon Katiwetitatham, on Ratchadapisek Road in Bang Khla district, Chachoengsao province.
After the incident, the suspect fled using a TOYOTA COROLLA ALTIS without a license plate, heading towards Nakhon Ratchasima province on Highway 304. Two hours later, Pol. Lt. Col.
