Fatal Road Accident in Mueang Chiang Mai Involving Ghanaian Tourist and Construction Workers
A 26 year old Lao construction worker was killed and two others injured when a sedan driven by a 26 year old Ghanaian tourist crashed into a construction site in the old town of Mueang Chiang Mai, Thailand. The tourist, identified as Wisdom Okyere, was found to be above the legal alcohol limit and was detained for further legal action. The police suggested that the accident may not be directly related to the recent extension of entertainment service hours, but rather due to the presence of numerous construction sites operating at night and unfamiliarity of tourists with the area.
