Deputy chief rejects rescue worker's viral video

Deputy chief rejects rescue worker's viral video

Metropolitan Police deputy chief Pol Maj-General Worasak Noppasittiporn said yesterday he wants to file charges against a rescue worker who posted a video on Facebook that alleges Min Buri traffic police told a medic team to clear out as they tried to rev

 

Taking to his own Facebook page, Worasak said the male victim was dead before the rescue team arrived.
The viral video clip that was posted on the rescue team’s Facebook page also used fake pictures and inappropriate language, the deputy chief said.
According to police evidence and photos from other eyewitnesses, traffic police had asked the ambulance to move because it was blocking traffic. The request caused the medic to be upset and scold the officers. The video clip and comments were posted in retaliation, Worasak said.
Worasak said he has ordered officials to gather more evidence, posts and pictures and to proceed with legal action against the suspect for obstructing traffic, violating police instructions, insulting an officer and posting false and tarnishing comments online.
He also offered condolences to the family of the motorcyclist who died from a head injury after crashing his bike into a power pole on Rom Klao Rd.
