On the ground about 10 feet under the bridge, authorities discovered Thianporn’s 21-year-old nephew, Chakkapak Siwapornpitak, who was severely wounded and was immediately rushed to Bhumibol Adulyadej Hospital.

As her nephew stopped to get it, the dark Hyundai van struck her sister and brother still on the bike, causing Mr Chakkapak to get thrown off the bridge.

The vehicle was driven by actor Tik Shiro, 63, who apologised to the patients ‘ home. He stayed at the picture to cooperate with government.

Officers brought Tik Shiro to the Khan Na Yao place for questioning and subjected to a blood alcohol check.
