British tourist throws his Thai wife off a 7th floor balcony because he was stressed by Thailand’s coronavirus lock

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

British tourist throws his Thai wife off a 7th floor balcony because he was stressed by Thailand’s coronavirus lock

Post by Clutch Cargo »

A British tourist has been arrested after allegedly throwing his Thai wife off a balcony after he grew aggravated due to the coronavirus lockdown.

Dave Mitchell, 46, was detained yesterday after his partner, Sukanda, 56, plunged from the seventh floor of the apartment block in Rayong, eastern Thailand.

Paramedics arrived and treated the injured woman at the scene. She reportedly told police that her English husband had thrown her over the balcony while they were arguing.

Sukanda only fell between one and two levels, luckily landing on a protruding roof from a building opposite, which saved her life.

The distressed woman was still conscious and rushed to hospital on a stretched to be treated for her injuries.

Officers then spent more than two hours trying to talk round the bare-chested and heavily-tattooed Brit, who had barricaded himself inside the apartment overlooking the sea.

Mitchell was pictured sitting on the white balcony with his hands clasped together while appearing to pray.

The Brit told officers that he was stressed because flights back to the UK have been cancelled and he was unable to return due to COVID-19.

He was allegedly agitated at having to stay in the apartment all the time – complying with Thailand’s strict travel ban, 10 pm curfew and closure of bars – so started arguing with Sukanda.

What kind of Pattaya "tourist" has a Thai "partner" ten years his senior? Something's clearly not right in his head!

Yeah, traveling thousands of miles and not settling with a lady at least twenty years junior makes no economic, philosophical, physiological, existential sense. He is a revolting type.

56 isn't a MILF anymore. That's usually a GILF / GrILF.

Maybe during the lock down he found out she cheated him about her age? :stir:

And have little experience.. And a 20yr old thai girl behaves like a 15 yr old in the west. Maybe his Mrs was a goddess in the art of Karma Sutra.. :whip: 8-)
