Over easy: Russian flips BMW in Phuket

PHUKET: A 24-year-old Russian national suffered only minor injuries after flipping the BMW she was driving on Thepkrasattri Road.

“Irina Mishina told us that she was heading toward Phuket Town when one of her back tires blew out. She then lost control of the car, and swerved into the median,” Lt Col Sanit Nookong of the Thalang Police said.

The BMW was the only vehicle involved in the incident.

Ms Mishina was brought to the Thalang Police Station for further questioning, confirmed Col Sanit.
