14 June 2020, 14.00 hrs. a village headman in Hai Mo Subdistrict informed police that there was a psychiatric patient who was out of control in his village. The young man ( Mr. Sunan ) was from Hai Phue Subdistrict, Udon Thani province, and had consumed methamphetamines before he burned his two motorcycles.
When police arrived at the house they found the man still in a state of insanity so they used a dog catching hook to control the situation.
Once the man calmed down a little, he was detained and brought to Ban Phue Hospital before being referred for further treatment at the psychiatric hospital in Loei province.
Police say he has been to drug treatment 3 times already but refuses to stay clean.
