He claimed that after returning from dropping off a passenger, he discovered the wallet lying on the ground. The wallet included a number of essential documents belonging to international nationals as well as US currency worth about 100,000 Thai baht.
After waiting for ten minutes in case the owner appeared, Mr. Chamnan made the decision to take the stolen wallet to the Pattaya Police Station in an effort to track down its true owner.
