Pemandu Lori Maut, 10 Jam Beratur Isi Minyak

BANGKOK -- Seorang pemandu lori ditemukan tidak bernyawa di dalam kenderaannya di sebuah stesen minyak di Prachuap Khiri Khan, dipercayai menunggu dalam barisan untuk mengisi minyak selama lebih 10 jam, lapor laman berita Thaiger.

Phut Nutchabut, 51, dilaporkan hilang selepas pemilik syarikat lori tersebut gagal menghubunginya melalui telefon.

Berikutan itu, pemilik tersebut mengesan lokasi terakhir lori itu diletakkan dan mendapatinya masih berada di stesen minyak PTT di daerah Kui Buri.

Pemilik kemudian menghubungi stesen minyak berkenaan dan meminta seorang pekerja untuk memeriksa lori tersebut.

Bagaimanapun, mangsa ditemukan terbaring di tempat duduk belakang dengan enjin yang masih hidup.

Pekerja stesen minyak tersebut kemudian memaklumkan kepada pemilik dan melaporkan kematian itu kepada Balai Polis Kui Buri.

Berdasarkan siasatan awal, polis percaya mangsa memandu masuk ke stesen minyak pada jam 10.53 malam, 24 Mac, dan meletakkan kenderaan dengan enjin masih hidup, berada di situ selama lebih 10 jam sebelum ditemukan.

Polis turut mengesyaki mangsa masuk ke stesen tersebut untuk mendapatkan tempat di barisan hadapan bagi pengisian minyak dan tertidur semasa menunggu di dalam lori.

Pemeriksaan lanjut ke atas kenderaan turut mendapati terdapat sedikit celah pada salah satu tingkap, yang dipercayai membolehkan gas karbon monoksida masuk ke dalam lori.

Kes masih dalam siasatan manakala mayat mangsa dibawa ke hospital untuk bedah siasat.

Thai truck driver found dead after alleged 10-hour refuelling queue

Thai truck driver was found dead inside his vehicle at a petrol station in Prachuap Khiri Khan yesterday, March 25, allegedly after he had been waiting in a refuelling queue for more than 10 hours.

The driver, 51 year old Phut Nutchabut, was reported missing after the owner of his trucking company was unable to contact him by phone. When calls went unanswered, the owner tracked the truck’s last known parking location and found it still parked at the PTT petrol station in Kui Buri district.

The owner then contacted the petrol station and asked an attendant to check the truck. Phut was found lying dead on the back seat with the engine still running. The attendant informed the owner and reported the death to Kui Buri Police Station.

Police said their initial investigation showed Phut drove into the petrol station at 10.53pm on March 24 and parked with the engine running, remaining there for more than 10 hours before he was discovered.

Officers suspect Phut entered the station to secure a place near the front of the queue for refuelling and fell asleep while waiting inside the truck.

A further check of the vehicle found a small gap in one of the windows, which police believe allowed carbon monoxide to enter the cabin. Excessive exposure to the gas is being considered as a possible cause of death.

However, police also said Phut may have had an underlying medical condition and could have stopped at the petrol station to rest. The cause of death remains under investigation, pending an autopsy.
