Breaking News: Phuket parasailor falls from Patong sky

PHUKET: A crowd is growing on Patong Beach after a Phuket parasailing operator lost his grip on the parachute ropes and tumbled from the sky.

“The man landed on the sand and broke his arm, but at this point that is all I know,” DDPM-Patong officer Sampawat Wannasangkam told the Phuket Gazette as he rushed to the scene.
