Cobra suspected in Norwegian man's death

CHON BURI: Police believe a Norwegian businessman found dead in his hotel room was bitten by a poisonous cobra he had been keeping.

 

Per Christian Lindgaard, 60, was found on his bed yesterday with what appeared to be bites on his body in his room at a hotel in Bang Lamung district.

 

He was believed to have been dead for at least three days before his body was discovered.

 

There were no traces of a struggle. However, a cobra, measuring about one metre long, was found near his bed. It took police and hotel staff about 20 minutes to catch the snake.

 

Many photos of the victim posing with snakes were found in the room.

 

Oranuch Prasit-an, 34, a hotel cleaner, said Lindgaard had brought a cobra to his room and complained he had been bitten two or three days previously.

Poor guy. When he told the staff that he had just been bitten by a cobra, he probably expected them to get help, and waited for help to arrive until he died. Little did he know that Thai's are only in a hurry when they drive, and three days waiting time is perfectly acceptable.

Yeah, because in this world, you should never try to get help for yourself when there's a room maid around.

 

Good one LD. I thought for a few seconds you were serious. Very deadpan.
