At 11:30 p.m. on July 4, 2025, Pattaya City Police Station received a report of a vehicle collision at a red light intersection on Sukhumvit Road in Bang Lamung District, Chonburi Province. A green Tank 500 SUV with Bangkok license plate 3ขธ 6000 had rear-ended a black Toyota Yaris, which was waiting at the light, causing severe damage to the rear of the Yaris. Two motorcycles parked nearby were also hit and damaged, with minor injuries reported.

The Yaris driver, Thawatchai, 37, reported that the Chinese tourist's SUV approached at high speed and struck his vehicle hard, pushing it forward to collide with two motorcycles ahead. Upon inspection, both the driver and passenger appeared intoxicated, reeked of alcohol, and spoke incoherently. They initially attempted to drive away and offered money to settle the matter privately, but Thawatchai refused and stopped the engine, alerting police.

At the scene, a Chinese companion of the driver began verbally confronting journalists and attempted to block video recording, displaying aggressive and disruptive behavior. Police intervened to control the situation and brought both individuals to Pattaya City Police Station.

At the station, the investigating officer requested the driver submit to an alcohol breath test in a closed room while asking media not to record. The driver refused to comply with the breathalyzer test. Police detained him in a holding cell pending legal proceedings.

France's head coach Didier Deschamps acknowledged that beating Paraguay was no easy task, revealing he had to deploy extra players to protect Kylian Mbappé. France edged past Paraguay 1-0 in the 2026 World Cup Round of 16 on July 4, with Mbappé scoring in the 70th minute. The victory sent the former runners-up into the quarterfinals to face Morocco on July 9.

After the match, Deschamps commented on his team's performance: "It wasn't easy at all. They used every trick in the book—it wasn't the kind of football designed to excite spectators, but they defended well. It's always difficult facing South American teams like that. Certainly, if we had converted our last two chances into goals, the situation would have been better."

"I don't want to criticize Paraguay, but each team plays the way they need to," he continued. "That said, there was some abusive language from their bench, which I didn't want to see happen."

Deschamps also emphasized that the match ended without major conflict and France avoided additional yellow cards. "The most important thing is that the game ended without any serious trouble, and we didn't receive any additional yellow cards. We picked up three yellows from multiple fouls. I'm not saying we didn't commit fouls, but both teams fouled each other heavily."

The 57-year-old coach also revealed that he instructed two of his largest players to surround and protect Mbappé late in the game due to concerns about hard tackles. "I ordered two of our biggest players to stand around Kylian in the final stages because they were going to try to stop him," Deschamps said.

A Yamaha X-Max 300 motorcycle crashed into a power pole in Pathum Thani early Sunday morning, killing both riders. At 12:20 a.m. on July 5, officers from Pak Khlong Rangsit Police Station in Pathum Thani received reports of the accident near Rachapruek Market in Muang District. Emergency responders, including traffic police, medical personnel, and forensic investigators from the Institute of Forensic Medicine, discovered the white and black motorcycle (Bangkok license plate 1 ม 6725) severely damaged against the power pole with two bodies covered in blood beside the vehicle.

The victims were identified as Thanarak, 37, from Laem Prao District in Chachoengsao province, and Thamada, 37. Initial investigation suggests the two were riding back from Bangkok and attempting to make a left turn onto a shortcut near Rachapruek Market before heading to an underpass beneath the railway bridge to return to their home on the opposite side. Police believe the motorcycle was traveling at high speed when it lost control and struck the power pole with significant force, killing both the driver and passenger. After police documented the scene, forensic officials transported the bodies to the Institute of Forensic Medicine for autopsy.
