The body of a male fashion model who jumped from the Rama VIII Bridge was found and retrieved from the Chao Phraya river early on Tuesday.
The Bang Pho police station was alerted at 1am that a body was seen floating near the Krung Thon Bridge, and sent a boat to retrieve it.
The body was sent for a post-mortem at Ramathibodi Hospital and identified as Thammasorn Chaphakdee, 26.
