On October 26, 2026, Pol. Lt. Col. Sawat Satkaew, deputy inspector (investigation) at Chok Chai Police Station, received a report of the theft at a house in Soi Nakanivas, Ladprao 71, Bangkok.

CCTV footage showed the suspect entering Soi Nakanivas on October 24 around 6:30 PM and breaking into the house around 6:50 PM. The thief wore tight clothing, a hat, gloves, and held a flashlight in his mouth, calmly grabbing valuables and even adjusting a camera to avoid detection.
