Drunken Man ‘Drowned’ By Rain Puddle
SAMUT PRAKARN – A drunken man was reportedly reportedly drowned to his death in a rain puddle after he became unconscious when the rainwater level started to rise.
The body of Mr. Anusorn (surname unclear) was found at a marble table inside the compound of a school in Samut Prakarn Province. His body was half-seated on the stool, while his head drooped down to the floor which was filled with 20-30 centimetres deep rainwater.
A witness told police the dead man was a construction worker in the nearby area. He was spotted drinking at the table alone the night before. It had been raining heavily last night, the witness said, and she only found the dead body of Mr. Anusorn later in the day.
Police believe Mr. Anusorn was so intoxicated he fell asleep with his head to the ground, and he was still unconscious when it started to rain heavily, flooding the ground around him, which caused him to drown.
However, the police have sent his body to be examined to establish the clear cause of death. By Khaosod Online
