Pattaya: Gold snatch theft outside school

Nong Prue police were called after a Thai man reported that a snatch thief on a motorcycle had grabbed his gold necklace outside Wat Bunsamphan school in Moo 10 around 7 pm last night.

 

Banthit, 25, had been out to get dinner with his girlfriend. They were walking home when a man on a motorcycle confronted him and grabbed his necklace. 

 

He only got part of it and raced off. 

 

Banthit gave chase on his own motorcycle but the thief clearly knew the area well and made good his escape. 

 

Nong Prue police radioed ahead to no avail and are now studying CCTV to get a lead in the case.

I didn't know there was a spate of people stealing snatches, and I've never seen a gold one

What in hell is a guy doing walking around with a gold chain round his neck in Pattaya of all  places during these difficult economic times?
