The robbery took place at the Chai Li gold shop on Kwang Road at 11.37am. Police said the man, who was wearing a motorcycle helmet that hid his face, walked into the shop and tried to smash a window display box with a long knife but failed to break it. The man then ran out of the store and fled on a motorcycle. Chanthaburi Police chief Pol Maj-General Jaral Jitjuajoon and forensics police officers were attempting to collect the robber’s fingerprints at the shop on Monday. Jaral said the man might be the same suspect who robbed a Sonthaya gold shop in front of the main fresh market in Muang district two days ago.
