Police have yet to identify a pedestrian seen concentrating on his mobile phone before being killed by a train in Saraburi early on Monday.
Police said the Ubon Ratchathani-Bangkok passenger train struck the man at 4.45am at a railway crossing in the community of Ban Oil 2 in Mueang district.
The train had travelled two kilometres beyond Saraburi station on its way to Bangkok. No identification documents were found on the victim’s mutilated body.
A 12-year-old boy in the neighbourhood told police he’d seen the man walk across the railway crossing while studying his mobile phone just before the train hit him.
