17-Year-Old's Motorcycle Engine Suddenly Dies Before Bike Erupts in Flames
A 17-year-old's motorcycle engine died suddenly near a school in Chon Buri before the bike erupted in flames, destroying it completely with no injuries reported.
At 11:30 AM on May 17, 2569, the Sawang Boriboon Rescue Center in Pattaya received a report of a motorcycle fire that occurred at a bend near Ban Huay Kai Nao School, Village 4, Khao Mai Kaew Subdistrict, Bang Lamung District, Chon Buri Province. Police from Huay Yai Station and rescue workers rushed to the scene and found a popular 150cc motorcycle engulfed in flames, completely destroyed except for a charred metal frame. Officials and residents used water to extinguish the fire and bring it under control. No injuries were reported.
When questioned, the motorcycle's 17-year-old owner, Songkorn, explained that the engine suddenly died as he was riding along the road. Flames then erupted rapidly from the motorcycle without warning, so he jumped from the bike to save his life before it was completely consumed by fire. The exact cause of the fire remains unknown.
