PATTAYA TEEN GANG BLUDGEON AND ROB DANISH BAR OWNER

A Danish bar owner returning to his home, in the early morning of 19 June, 2009, found it being plundered by a teenage gang. As he walked in, he was set upon and severely beaten up. The thieves escaped with a vast amount of spoils and cash.

At 03.30 am, on 19 June, Pol. Lt. Col. Jiwattanapong, Banglamung Police Investigator, was notified of a robbery and attack in a house off Sukhumvit Road. A police and paramedic team was duly dispatched to investigate.

At the crime scene, a single house, the police found Mr. Bent Freddy Starbeck, [49], Danish national, who had been severely beaten, with head wounds and an extremely bruised face. The rescue team gave him first aid. The house appeared as if it had been totally ransacked, with considerable evidence of fighting.

Questioning the victim, police discovered Mr. Bent had a beer bar in Walking Street. He had apparently travelled back to his house, only to find two motorbikes parked in front, with the light on in the house. He said he had rushed into the house and found three teenage boys and a girl searching it.


As soon as they saw him walking in, the males set upon him and started to beat him up. As he began to retaliate, shouting for help from his neighbours, one of them picked up a pipe and hit him about the head until he fell down. The gang then rushed back to their bikes and sped away. The robbers had managed to steal Bt135,000, a computer, a 42” LCD TV, a DVD player and other items totalling over Bt100,000 in value.

Police duly filed a report, detailing the information, before sending the victim to the Banglamung Hospital. The police presumed that the robbers must have been in the house before. The suspects must also have known Mr. Starbeck’s time schedule and there could well have been over 5 robbers involved in the crime because several large items had been taken out of the house before Mr. Starbeck had returned home and surprised the rest of the gang.


Police, questioning the neighbours, were told that Mr. Starbeck was in the habit of taking different women home on a regular basis, one or more of whom may have been involved in some way with the crime. The police will do their best to bring the robbers to justice as soon as possible.

Just thought this excerpt from a property ad I just read might amuse some -

Why Pattaya?

Safety- Thailand is a wonderful place, where I feel that I can let my children out and I can walk at night without fear.

Thanks to 'Land of Smiles Property' for that piece of comic relief.

Here we go again. Why on earth does someone, especially a farang bar owner in pittiya who takes women home on a regular basis keep big wads of cash at home?

Either an imbecile or a liar.

Lemme see.....135,000 + 100,000 plus lets say 35,000 for the 42'' and 5,000 for the dvd player and 20,000 on top for the other items.

Yay!!!

Its 300,000 baht

[crazy dog]

I knew a guy who had his safe burnt into while he was away for the weekend and $20,000 were taken. He too used to take the cream of Bkk nightlife back home- from the Thermae. probably showed them the safe as well!
Just remembered another last year who got 100k baht of stuff nicked after an a go go gal drugged and robbed him in his condo. She was even dafter than him as she was still working at the same bar when the Police arrested her. She got sentenced to six years, he moved to Pattaya!

I will have my money on this punter being fully insured
Reckon I would be happy to spill a bit of claret for a 300K baht payday

Never, ever, ever take bar-girls and prostitutes back to your domicile. Use a short-time room.

It's one of the first things I learnt here.

And this guy has a bar on walking street? Some people never learn I guess.

[Happyman]

Please let me handle the claim !!!

No bloody chance !
He missed out on the two mandatory items that MUST appear in any insurance robbery claim ie. Rayban sunglasses and of course the Rolex watch !!

[Fuzzy Bob]

Anyone know what Mr. Bent's bar is called?

[Bangyai]

Never, ever, ever take bar-girls and prostitutes back to your domicile. Use a short-time room.

.

I believe the colloquial term is " shitting on your own doorstep "

Having said that I often used to do it if I knew the girl very well. Its not so dangerous if your pad is in the sticks and a long way from the action. This deters girls from popping in unannounced after an expensive taxi ride across the city. In Pattaya where everyone is living cheek to jowel not such a good idea.

Children don't carry 135,000 baht on them...no problems.

Mr. Bent Freddy Starbeck

Maybe the Thai's thought they were visiting Starbuck's and needed a coffee desperately!

Caffeine addiction can make people pretty crazy like stealing TV's and other random valuables!

Great lesson! If the light is on and your not home only enter with a shotgun!

[jim1176]

The entire matter is routine in every sense.

Thailand: dangerous people, dangerous place.

[barbaro]

More bad news from Patters. The problem with houses is that they're hard to secure.

[BenDoverMax]

Are there high/much incidents of above crime in the Issan villages (provences) or is it high farang attraction/risk areas like BKK, Pattaya and Phuket?

Less risk in Isaan and havent heard of a attack on any farang for many many years, but last year they targeted farang homes, druging them with gas before going throught the house.

Not heard that before. Do you have any more details?
