Thai police arrest Russian ‘zombies’ at Pattaya restaurant
by 21st February 2016THREE Russians were apprehended by Thai police after an elaborate attempt to rob diners at a popular restaurant in the Pattaya was foiled.
The three Russians, all in their 20s, entered the Surf Kitchen Restaurant in Pattaya on 18th February and sat at separate tables. After paying the bill, the first Russian fell to the floor and ‘transformed’ into a ‘zombie’. He then staggered around the restaurant grunting and growling before attacking the two other Russians who, upon being bitten, also transformed into zombies.
As the three ‘zombies’ fumbled around the restaurant, chaotic scenes erupted with a number of diners fleeing the restaurant, leaving their valuables on the table. It is believed that the ‘zombies’ had intended to make off with the valuables left behind by the terrified diners but their elaborate plan was foiled by staff who bravely confronted the ‘walking dead’ with wooden chairs.
Police soon arrived at the scene only to find the ‘zombies’ had recovered and were human once again. Upon reviewing the CCTV footage, the police concluded the three foreigners had developed the plan to empty the restaurant, leaving them free to take the diners’ valuables. However, during questioning at the local police station, the Russians denied any ill intentions and, in the absence of any evidence, the police had no option but to release the three pranksters.
