Suphawis Krajanswang, lovingly regarded as the cornerstone of his family, encountered tragedy during a beachside outing after volleyball practice when he was struck by a Ford car. His absence has brought sorrow to his parents, who are local market vendors, as they fondly recall his dedicated work ethic and friendly disposition.

Despite Aomruthai’s impassioned pleas and a live Facebook broadcast on Monday, March 11, the family remains haunted by uncertainty as the hit-and-run suspect remains elusive.

According to Superintendent Police Colonel Siri Rajraksa of the Thong Chai Police Station, law enforcement’s response has been prompt, with efforts to locate and confront the suspect underway since the incident.

Initial encounters with a 60 year old German man yielded denial of involvement, although charges loom for reckless driving leading to death and failure to provide aid, reported Hua Hin Today.

However, conclusive tests on blood alcohol levels are pending, intensifying the quest for closure and justice in the wake of Suphawis’s tragic demise.
