rooster59 Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Norweigan man found dead in Pattaya condo swimming pool Police are investigating the death of a man whose body was found in a swimming pool at a condominium in Pattaya. First responders were called around 5pm on Saturday (18 July) to a condominium in Nong Prue where they found the body of a 63 year old Norweigan man. A security guard at the condominium told police he saw the victim swimming in the pool at around 4.45pm. When the guard walked past the pool again a short time later, he saw the lifeless body of the man laying face down in the water. The guard jumped in and pulled the man out of the pool but he was already dead. The man’s body has been sent for autopsy to establish an official cause of death. Police will study CCTV footage from the condo as part of their investigations.

TooBigToFit Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Oops! My mistake. There are two NongPrue's in Chonburi. Google showed me the one near Chachangsao. I typed in Pattaya and got it. It covers a lot of Pattaya. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's the same Nong Prue. Where is Nong Prue in Pattaya? From the photo, it's View Talay 7, with one of the Jomtien Complex Condo towers behind it. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they name the building in the Khaosod report (in Thai). Right down in Jomtien.

holy cow cm Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Can't say it is the worst way to go, but 63 is a bit young when enjoying life in a place you love. I wonder if they empty the pool water out after something like this happens as there must be some released bodily fluid that seeped out into the water. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
