Surely the victims were the owners of the house. The Malaysian was the guilty party for falling asleep.

Unless the house jumped out into the road as the electrical pylons do in Phuket.

Maybe the person who made the original post might look into this again and see if it was reported incorrectly, or if there is some other explanation.
