An entire neighborhood is gripped by fear after an unknown assailant threw over five cobras into a townhouse in the Jom Thong district of Bangkok on May 14, 2025. The incident occurred at a residence on Wutthakad Soi 53 in Bang Kho subdistrict, adding to a pattern of harassment that includes paint-splashing, stone-throwing, and now the introduction of dangerous snakes into a residential area. When rescue workers arrived, they discovered multiple large cobras packed in sealed sacks inside the house, confirming residents' worst fears about the intentional nature of the attack.

The harassment is believed to stem from an ongoing dispute related to a motorcycle fraud case, in which someone allegedly lost 5 million baht in a Harley-Davidson scam. Neighbors report that the violence escalated during the Songkran festival period, with the perpetrator repeatedly targeting the same house at all hours of the day and night. A 54-year-old rescue volunteer named Prasit Nilpat confirmed finding at least 5-6 large cobras inside the residence, each as thick as a man's arm, which were subsequently transferred to a wildlife rescue center.

Residents expressed deep concern about the danger posed to children and elderly people living in the alley, with many fearful of allowing their children to play outside. Neighbors called on the house owner and the other party in the dispute to come forward and resolve their differences through proper legal channels rather than endangering the entire community. The incident has prompted calls for both parties to clarify the facts and allow the neighborhood to return to a state of peace and safety.

Prime Minister Anusit Charnweerakul and Interior Minister gave a statement on May 15, 2025, regarding the arrest of the former Chiang Dao District chief in Chiang Mai province for illegally issuing a pink ID card to Ming Chen Sun, a Chinese national arrested for possession of military weapons.

Anusit said his government will continue pursuing arrests and expanding the investigation because this is a large-scale operation. The district chief involved has already been ordered to step down from his position. He emphasized that anyone implicated in this matter will face consequences, urging the public to be confident that the current government will not tolerate corruption or make deals. He stressed that whether it involves land encroachment, drug trafficking, illegal gambling, money laundering, or scamming operations, his administration shows zero tolerance for criminal activities.

When asked if the criminal network is extensive, the Prime Minister briefly stated that this investigation is far from over and will not end here.

Meanwhile, the Director-General of the Department of Local Administration is using the NACC mechanism to trace the financial transactions of the district chief, local police, and officials in Surat Thani and Phuket provinces who may be involved in encroachments on public land. The Prime Minister said this demonstrates the government's serious commitment, noting that committees will be established to investigate any district chiefs, provincial secretaries, or governors found to be implicated. He clarified that those with no wrongdoing need not worry, but preliminary investigations must proceed to ensure justice has no exceptions.

When asked if any perpetrators are personally acquainted with him, the Prime Minister reiterated that he focuses on conduct rather than identity, stating that the government's approach is to let the enforcement agencies do their work without preconceived notions. Justice will be served when charges are officially filed.

A 47-year-old woman died after losing consciousness while clam digging with friends in a pond, drowning in front of her 7-year-old son at 2:10 PM on May 15, 2025. Deputy Sub-Lieutenant Nattapat Phuang Jab received a report of a drowning victim in a pond behind a residential area on Santi Suk Lane, Ban Khay Saneh Village, Nong Khon Kwang Subdistrict, Mueang District, Udon Thani Province. Neighbors pulled the body out and provided first aid before rescue teams from Khao Prakach Hospital and Udon Sawang Methachakkamat Foundation arrived at the scene.

The pond covers approximately one acre with depths around one meter at the banks. The victim, identified as Samporn, age 47, was found wearing a blue patterned halter-neck shirt and three-quarter-length patterned pants, lying face-up and deceased. Her friend Daeng, age 58, and another neighbor helped retrieve the body from the water. Rescue personnel performed CPR for about 30 minutes but could not revive her.

As rescue efforts were underway, the victim's husband and daughter arrived at the scene. Upon learning that Samporn could not be saved, her daughter broke down in tears amid the grief of family and neighbors.

Physical examination of the body showed no signs of assault or struggle. Investigators believe the victim experienced sudden fainting, fell face-first into the water, and was unable to help herself. According to Daeng's statement, after lunch the victim invited the group to go clam diving at the pond—herself, Daeng, another neighbor, and her 7-year-old son. While they were separated searching for clams, Daeng noticed the victim had submerged her face. Initially thinking it was playful behavior with her son, who was riding on her back and laughing, Daeng soon realized something was wrong when she noticed the victim's fixed stare and clenched fists. She and the other neighbor quickly pulled her from the water and called authorities.

After the initial autopsy, relatives questioned the cause of death, so the body was transferred to the forensic medicine department at Udon Thani Hospital for a more thorough examination before being released to the family for funeral rites.
