A thin, tall food delivery rider kicked a 61-year-old woman lying injured on the road on July 8, 2025, following a motorcycle collision at a U-turn point on Srichan Road in Ban Bakhao, Khon Kaen. The incident was filmed and shared on social media, sparking debate about whether the rider's actions were excessive. The collision caused injuries and scattered the rider's food delivery box across the street. After angrily pacing back and forth, the rider kicked the elderly woman with his left foot before a good Samaritan intervened to separate them.
The victim, Ms. Somphan Uylua, 61, suffered wounds to her head and left foot and received first aid including neck stabilization before being transported to Khon Kaen Hospital. According to Colonel Yotsawat Kaewsubthanit, commander of Muang Khon Kaen Police Station, the suspect is a 24-year-old food delivery rider operating a blue Yamaha motorcycle with registration number 1GL-816 from Maha Sarakham. He sought treatment at Khon Kaen Ram Hospital and is currently under police investigation with his parents having contacted investigators.
