A food delivery rider in Chonburi helped a passenger rescue her friend from a resort after she claimed her friend had been lured there under false pretenses.
According to a report by Khaosod Online, a delivery rider known as 'Bank' shared an account of an incident that occurred in Chonburi approximately three to four days prior to September 1, 2026. While working a late-night shift, Bank picked up a female passenger who requested his help to rescue a friend she claimed had been lured to a local resort.
Upon arrival, the passenger asked Bank to wear a police jacket she had brought with her. Bank accompanied her to the room, where they found another woman emerging from a bathroom. Bank noted that this woman appeared to be trembling and walking unsteadily. The group successfully left the premises, and Bank confirmed that no one sustained physical injuries during the encounter.
For residents and travelers, this incident highlights the importance of remaining vigilant regarding personal safety and the potential risks associated with meeting individuals in private or isolated settings. While the rider’s quick actions facilitated a safe exit, many details remain unconfirmed. The origin of the police jacket, the specific nature of the alleged deception, and the identities of those involved have not been fully clarified by authorities. As the investigation into the circumstances continues, it serves as a reminder to prioritize safety and seek official assistance if one feels threatened or coerced.
