Teens nabbed for Hua Hin motorbike thefts

Post by buksida »

Five minors involved in stealing motorcycles have been arrested in Hua Hin district, police said on Tuesday.

Police apprehended the five young teenagers at their home and seized five stolen motorcycles and a .22 pen gun.

The suspects admitted to stealing 20 motorcycles in Hua Hin and Pran Buri districts, and said they were to be sent to Myanmar via a man at a military camp in Pranburi, police said.

According to the police, they admitted it took them only about two minutes to steal a motorcycle.

The young suspects targetted small motorcycles, such as the Honda Fino and Honda Wave, which are popular with Myanmar teens, police said.

I wonder if the military connection included the use of army transport to arrange for the transit?
