The police checkpoints set up around town are proving to be very effective.

Yet again this week one was set up on Pattaya second road at the Royal Garden Plaza where police waved down a motorcyclist so that they could check his papers.

However the man who is Thai failed to stop and increased his speed and panicked.

The bike almost hit and injured some pedestrians. He then jumped off his bike and ran in the direction of Royal Twin Hotel on second road, however the police were able to apprehend him.

Upon searching him he was charged with possession of methamphetamine tablets and the drug known as Ice.

His record also showed that an arrest warrant had previously been issued against him by a court in Nakorn Srithammaraj  with the charge of illegal drug possession and robbery at gun-point.
