Pom explained that a man in a black shirt walked up and snatched more than 10,000 from the hapless farang and ran off. Netizens were quick to express their outrage:
“This is not good manners! The locals tried to follow the black-shirted guy but were unable to arrest him.”
Pattaya City police say they have not yet received a report of the incident.
