webfact Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Elderly Thai woman crushed to death by steel gate Wang Noi police and rescue services were called to a vehicle repair yard in the Lamsao sub-district of Ayutthaya yesterday after a 74 year old woman was found crushed to death by a stainless steel gate. Prathin's job at the yard was to open and shut the gate, police heard. Study of CCTV showed her closing the gate that then came loose and crushed her. She struggled to get free but it was very heavy and she was unable to breathe. She suffered facial and bodily injuries and the police determined she had been dead at least 10 hours. The victim lived at the repair yard.

2long Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 If there's a dead pensioner behind the pixelisation, and let's face it she won't be running off, then why can't we/they show a bit more respect and less indifference, especially while the photo is being taken!? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robblok Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 I dare to bet that the company that installed the gate will not be held responsible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not because of lack of respect, but because of being used to the job. So, imho, what you see is not lack of respect, just people talking while waiting to get clearance to remove the gate and allow the remains to be retrieved. Would you be happier if they had lined up and smiled while pointing at the pixels ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giddyup Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Not the first, and probably not the last person to be crushed by a gate in Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foghorn Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 I rented a house and my son closed the gate before closing the small one it fell over ,I could not lift the gate alone ,luckily it fell the other way or he would of been hurt , to fix the problem I put a screw in the runner so it couldn’t come out . The landlord said it happened to him a few time before . This country is full of %-#£ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome. Lets have some censorship and staged photos in the world. She's dead. She couldn't care. Edited July 3, 2020 by Yme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
