In the early hours of this morning, a tragic car accident occurred when a vehicle lost control and crashed into a residential house near the entrance of Soi Seri Thai 16 in Khlong Kum, Bueng Kum, Bangkok. The incident, reported at 5.30am, today, June 25, was attended by Bueng Kum police and volunteers from the Ruamkatanyu Foundation.
Upon arrival, the responders discovered a red two-door Toyota car with Bangkok registration in a severely damaged state, having ploughed through a two-storey wooden house.
One man was found deceased at the scene; his body had been thrown from the vehicle, landing with his head submerged in a drainage ditch. Another man, severely injured, was trapped inside the wreckage. Emergency personnel extracted him and transported him to the hospital for treatment.
