PATTAYA, Thailand – A foreign man was injured after falling from a height near a pier in the Pratumnak area late Tuesday night, April 21, prompting a response from municipal officers and rescue workers.
Jomtien municipal officers received reports from local residents of an intoxicated foreign man who had fallen near the Ziggy Pier area on Pratumnak Road Soi 5.
Officers arrived at the scene and found the man with a head wound and minor abrasions on his arms and legs.
Rescue personnel from the Sawang Boriboon Foundation were called in to provide first aid. However, the man reportedly refused both medical treatment for his injuries and transport to hospital.
