PATTAYA, Thailand – Jomtien municipal officers and Pattaya police came to the aid of a homeless man found weak and unable to care for himself while lying on a pedestrian footbridge.

Recognizing that he needed medical attention, the Jomtien municipal team contacted Sawang Boriboon rescuers, who arrived at the scene and carefully transferred him for treatment. The man was taken to Pattaya City Hospital, where doctors were to examine his condition and provide further treatment. The incident highlights the role of municipal officers and emergency responders in helping vulnerable people found in public areas, particularly when they are unable to seek medical assistance themselves.

The rescue highlights the importance of keeping an eye out for vulnerable people in public places and getting help to those who may be unable to ask for it themselves.
