Red Bull heir pays Bt3m to victim's kin

The family of Pol Snr Sgt-Major Wichien Klanprasert, who was run over by Red Bull heir Worrayuth Yoovidhya's Ferrari last month, have agreed to an out-of-court settlement of Bt3 million, police said yesterday.

Thong Lor investigator Pol Lt-Colonel Wiradol Taptimdee said police investigators were still waiting for detailed results after an initial blood test showed that Worrayuth might have consumed a narcotic substance. They are also waiting for forensic results on the car and the speed at which it was going when it hit the policeman’s motorbike. Wiradol said the results should be revealed soon and the case should be concluded by the end of this month.
