Nongprue police have stepped up patrols around Mabprachan Reservoir after a series of car burglaries.

The lake has been busy with people put out of work by the coronavirus pandemic, killing time by exercising, cycling and running. As a result, more cars, and more opportunities for crime, sit along the water’s edge.

Police said there have been a number of car break-ins, including one this week where a motorist lost 100,000 baht in property.

Police increase their presence in high crime areas to deter potential misconduct.



Showing force is also good public relations, demonstrating that something is being done.
