After receiving a report of a home intrusion and robbery, police went to the victim’s two-storey home in Tambon Si Pran at 7am. Sawaengha Police Station superintendant Pol Colonel Krittidech Sirichannont said they had found a blood trail that indicated where the intruders had fled the house belonging to village headwoman Pornnipa Khongyai (pic). She said the men then fled through the back of house and sped away on a motorcycle. Police would also check CCTV cameras along possible escape routes in the hunt for the intruders, Krittidech said. Local people praised Pornnipa for fighting back, although they also noted that in her capacity as a village headwoman she had undergone some defence training that gave her the courage to do so.
