Tourist Police Division 3 hunted down a 19-year-old Norwegian man, Olaf (alias), who was fleeing an Interpol Red Notice for attempted murder and causing serious bodily harm. He was tracked to a condominium in Bang Phli district, Samut Prakan, and taken into custody. Pol. Maj. Gen. Songprod Sirisukha, commander of Tourist Police Division 3, ordered Pol. Col. Suriya Puangsumbat, deputy commander, and Pol. Col. Sittisak Kosakun, superintendent of Samut Prakan Tourist Police Station, to lead the investigation team.
Norwegian authorities had issued the Red Notice and revoked the suspect's passport and residency permission in Thailand. The suspect initially acknowledged he was the person named in the Norwegian arrest warrant for stabbing a 15-year-old boy, causing severe injuries, in a dispute linked to an e-cigarette deal. He refused to provide any further statement on the case. Officers transferred him to Tourist Police Division 3 for extended questioning before sending him to Immigration Police Bureau for further legal action.
