Early on Wednesday Morning, Police Lieutenant Colonel Wirawoot from Pattaya Police Station was called to the Royal Twin Palace Hotel in South Pattaya following the discovery of a body on a 2nd floor flat roof area. Police inspected the body of Mr. Lars Rutger Johansson aged 57 from Sweden. He was known to be staying in a 12th floor room at the Hotel and, upon further inspection of the body, Police assume he had fallen the 10 floors to his death. Police inspected the victim’s room number 1223 and found nothing suspicious, apart from many cans of Beer. Mr. Johansson had checked into the Hotel on 21st February and on Monday Night a Security Guard spotted him in the Hotel Lobby carrying many cans of beer. He appeared to be in a depressed state according to the Guard. A post mortem examination including a toxicology report will take place to determine Mr. Johansson’s physical state prior to his death. Police have ruled out third party involvement in his death.

Is that the Base Jumper week without Parachutes?
It seems gravity has to the the number one killer in Pattaya.
Never fall in love in Pattaya, or you too will end up jumping off the roof. Either that or he just fell over drunk. Quite a number of tourist seem to die in this town.
R.I.P Lasse… //m.c Sweden
seems to be a hell of a lot of visitors go out that way in and around Pattaya yet the police never get to involved, good old Pattaya police layed back and lax as usual
To many beers should of drunk in a bar more safer to fall off a bar stool…. EDITED BY ADMIN
Bungee jumping without a rope is a very common occurrence in Pattaya seemingly. Poor guy probably went for a piss off the balcony and lost balance. Sevenhills 404
How the hell does the guard know he was in a depressed state, what a load. I quess the guard has a degree in psychology
But loves doing security work at night. It is quite easy to push someone off the balcony without messing up the room and even easier if the psychologist is on duty to support the depression angle as well as not seeing anything. Please!
Its not a derogatory statement, many people leave vis the rear exit, sum real some different.
