Police Investigate Vehicle Linked to Triple Homicide in Chonburi
Authorities are examining a vehicle suspected of involvement in the murder of a family of three in Huai Yai, Chonburi.
On August 2, 2026, police and forensic experts in Chonburi province conducted an investigation into a gold-colored Chevrolet sedan, registered in Chonburi, parked at the residence of three deceased individuals. According to Khaosod Online Thailand, the victims—identified as Mr. Wichian Nawongsa, Ms. Chantana Chat-in, and Ms. Nichapa Nawongsa—were found buried in a case of suspected homicide.
Investigators believe the vehicle may have been utilized during the commission of the crime or for the transport of the victims' bodies. Forensic teams collected various samples from the interior and exterior of the car, including latent fingerprints, hair, and fiber evidence. These samples are currently being processed to determine if they match evidence recovered from the crime scene and the victims' remains.
For residents and visitors in the Huai Yai area of Bang Lamung, this investigation highlights an active police operation regarding a serious criminal case. While the authorities are working to establish a definitive link between the vehicle and the suspects, the investigation remains ongoing. It is not yet confirmed whether the vehicle was directly involved in the incident, and officials are awaiting the results of the forensic analysis to proceed with further legal actions.
