A couple from Ayutthaya Province was found dead inside a locked Honda Accord at a petrol station in Nakhon Ratchasima’s Si Khiew district after the vehicle had been parked for several days.

A white Honda Accord with license plate 4 Kor Thor 2037 Bangkok was found parked and locked at a petrol station in Si Khiew District, Nakhon Ratchasima Province, after being left for several days. Inside, police discovered the bodies of a 53‑year‑old man and a 48‑year‑old woman from Ayutthaya Province. A charcoal stove and a bag of charcoal were found in the vehicle.
At 11:20 a.m. on October 7, 2069, police at Si Khiew Police Station received a report of a dead body inside a car at a petrol station in Buakhao Subdistrict, Si Khiew District, Nakhon Ratchasima Province. They coordinated with forensic police and the Huk 31 Nakhon Ratchasima rescue team, Si Khiew point, to inspect the scene.
Officers found the car with its engine off and doors locked. Rescue volunteers used tools to open the doors before Si Khiew police and forensic officers entered to examine and collect evidence inside the vehicle.
Preliminary inspection revealed two deceased persons: a male, later identified as Suriya, 53, seated in the driver’s seat, and a female, identified as Rachada, 48. Both were from Ayutthaya Province. Inside the car, investigators also found a charcoal stove near the passenger seat and a bag of charcoal near the driver’s side.
Witnesses said the car had been parked at the petrol station since the previous Sunday, or possibly earlier, but no one noticed and nobody saw anyone exit the vehicle. This morning, a person who came to dump trash noticed an unusual smell and saw fluid dripping from the car, prompting them to call police.
Police have not yet determined the cause of death and are still examining evidence inside the car, reviewing CCTV footage from the petrol station, and gathering information about the deceased to establish what happened.
The bodies of the two victims have been sent to Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital for a detailed autopsy to determine the cause and time of death. Authorities are awaiting the results before contacting relatives and proceeding with legal procedures.
