An MCOT anchor was robbed by four teenagers yesterday morning on her way back to her condo in Huai Khwang district.
Kittima Na Thalang, MCOT’s international news anchor, had finished reading the morning news and was on the way back to her Lumpini Place condominium when four teenagers riding one motorbike stopped her on Watthana Tham Road and threatened her.
The male teenager riding on the back grabbed Kittima’s purse as she tried to fight back, then he pulled out a Spartan-style knife. At that point Kittima decided to let go of the purse, which held her iPhone, house keys and some cash.
The MCOT anchor told to the police the four boys did not look older than 20.
Huai Kwang authorities assume the robbers are teenagers who reside in the area and will go through the footage of nearby CCTVs for further investigation, MCOT reported.
