A man from Udon Thani was found dead on his motorcycle, likely due to a pre-existing condition. Rescuers revealed they had previously assisted him during a severe asthma attack. The police are investigating the exact cause of death.

Police Lieutenant Panadecha Manolert from the Samut Sakhon Police Station received a report about a man found dead on a motorcycle along Ekachai Road in Mahachai, Samut Sakhon. The incident occurred yesterday, August 14, with emergency response teams from the Samut Sakhon Charity Foundation accompanying the police to the scene.

Upon arrival, they discovered the lifeless body of a man, later identified as 53 year old Wanchai from Suephlo, Kumphawapi district, Udon Thani. He was found slumped over his blue Yamaha motorcycle with Phichit registration plates.

Initial examinations showed no visible injuries on his body. An eyewitness reported that they had driven past the area earlier in the morning, and it was clear at that time. However, upon returning, they saw the man deceased on his motorcycle.

A representative from the Samut Sakhon Charity Foundation stated that they had previously assisted Wanchai during a severe asthma attack. According to the police, the preliminary assumption is that Wanchai might have succumbed to a pre-existing health condition.

“We suspect that while Wanchai was riding his motorcycle, he experienced a sudden health issue, prompting him to pull over to the side of the road. Unfortunately, he passed away suddenly.”

Police arranged for his body to be sent to Samut Sakhon Hospital for an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death. They will also contact Wanchai’s relatives to inform them and arrange for the body to be collected for funeral rites, reported KhaoSod.

In related news, a man was found grieving over his wife’s body after a heated argument earlier in the day, following her secret borrowing of money from loan sharks. The incident led to a tragic end when she was found dead inside her car.
