Russian found unconscious with white powder on nose in Pattaya
Rescue workers were pushed out of the restroom by the man's friends, who refused hospital transport and took him back to their accommodation The story Russian found unconscious with white powder on nose in Pattaya as seen on Thaiger News .
On August 28, a Russian tourist was found unconscious in a toilet near Pattaya's Walking Street, with a white powder around his nostrils, according to local reports. The incident occurred early in the morning, and the man was reportedly heavily intoxicated, making it difficult for him to communicate clearly. His friends, also heavily intoxicated, initially prevented rescue workers from providing assistance, despite the man's condition.
The rescue team found traces of white powder resembling an illegal substance, possibly ketamine, but they were unable to confirm its exact nature. The tourist claimed that he had taken antidepressant medication and consumed alcohol before losing consciousness. Despite being able to awaken, he remained intoxicated and incoherent, insisting that he did not want to go to the hospital and that he wanted to return to his accommodation.
A witness, a 64-year-old resident, confirmed the group's arrival from a nearby Russian entertainment venue and noted that after the tourist lost consciousness, his friends initially sought assistance but later blocked rescue workers from entering the toilet. The woman also reported seeing the white powder, suspecting it could be ketamine, though she was unsure of its origin.
The cause of the tourist's condition could not be determined due to his friends' refusal to allow him to receive medical attention, leading them to carry the man back to his lodging instead.
