Popular Post webfact Posted June 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 8, 2020 Video: Cop falls head first through the roof after going up to adjust the Thai flag Picture: Sanook Shocking CCTV footage showed the moment a senior policeman fell through the roof of a police station in the north of Thailand crashing head first onto the main steps. As a woman tends to the injured man others including a policeman with no tunic scurry to help the stricken cop. There is much consternation as fellow officers point up to the hole in the roof at the Wang Nam Khu police station in Phitsanulok. The incident happened in May but has only just been widely viewed on social media. Sanook caught up with the man at the center of the drama, Pol Sgt-Maj Wichayut Srikrajang. He said that he was on the roof adjusting a Thai flag and other flags that had been blown off straight in a storm. But it was slippery and he lost his footing. He couldn't remember much after that. He had eight stitches to a head wound and cracked a rib and had to stay in the Naresuan University hospital for a time before he was allowed to go home to his wife. He had done some physio and expected to make a full recovery in time. Picture: Sanook One of his superiors Pol Col Sumit Manmuang went to offer his support with a basket of goodies and an envelope containing cash. Sgt-Maj Wichayut said he hoped to be back at the station soon though he was going to do some light office work first and not overdo it.

ezzra Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Poor fella, hopefully he will not need the help of the social security funds ( prakahn sunkom) benefits to see him through his recovery as those guys will not pay as it happens to someone i know out of work for 3 months where he was told there was no more money to give after paying his contributions to the fund for years and no money when he needs it the most...

Popular Post Moonlover Posted June 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 8, 2020 He's very lucky. He could easily have broken his neck in that fall. I'm pleased to see that his fellow officers did the right thing and did not try and move him. I wonder what @Justgrazing found so funny about it. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Ray Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Immigration Police back down to basic pay as low as 8,000 baht per month as (official) share of fines from airport etc has shrunk to zero. Hope this guy gets enough to be able to donate a handrail and anti slip covering to the roof for next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He found it funny because karma is a bitch and it had all the makings of a Keystome Cops sketch! Get over yourself.

Grumpy one Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Memo to all Thai police, before venturing onto the roof Do it before lunch and make certain it can withstand your weight Better still get some skinny prisoner up there. I'm sure you could find one or 2 with roof experience 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlclark97 Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Am sure the lady helping him was doing what she thought was best. Good thing he did not have any injury that moving his head and neck around would have caused a much more serious injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
