An elderly expat died when he apparently drowned off Jomtien Beach.
The remains of Ralf Reinke, 64, were pulled to shore at Jomtien Soi 15 Dec. 14. His truck was found parked nearby.
Witness Sumit Kanchanapiboon, 32, said he saw Reinke go into the water to swim and, later on, saw what appeared to be a body floating on the surface.
A passing boat brought the body to shore.
There were no signs of any animal bites, jellyfish stings or wounds, so it’s presumed he drowned.
