Udon Thani Drug Arrest Wrongly Linked to Nong Khai Graffiti
A viral social media post combining a genuine Udon Thani police drug arrest with a separate photo of "selling drugs" graffiti on a road caused public confusion about the location. The original poster clarified that while the arrest by Udon Thani's Suppression and Crime Division was real, the road graffiti actually occurred in Tha Bo district, Nong Khai province. Authorities urged the public not to misunderstand the situation or the reputation of the areas involved.
The owner of the original post has clarified the viral image controversy showing a road spray-painted with "selling drugs" appearing to flaunt the law. The poster explained it wasn't in Udon Thani, fearing public misunderstanding.
Confusion cleared up! A post shared a photo of Udon Thani police arresting a drug agent alongside a photo of a road boldly written with "selling drugs". The poster urgently clarified: the arrest photo is real from the Udon Thani Suppression and Crime Division, but the road sign photo is in Tha Bo district, Nong Khai. Please don't confuse them.
On November 13, 2026, regarding the case where photos of the "Seua Chado" investigation team from Udon Thani Suppression and Crime Division arresting a methamphetamine suspect were shared alongside a photo of text brazenly written on the road surface saying "selling drugs", causing an uproar and making many misunderstand that the defiant "selling drugs" road sign incident occurred in Udon Thani province.
Recently, the original poster came forward to clarify the facts to prevent confusion, stating that the arrest photo was indeed the work of Udon Thani Suppression and Crime Division officers. However, the road surface photo with "selling drugs" written on it occurred in Tha Bo district, Nong Khai province, and is not in Udon Thani province at all. They therefore clarified this for the general public to prevent misunderstanding about the area's image.
