Hamokhamok Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 The following Security notice has been issued. Security Notice There were two incidents recently in which U.S. Embassy employees had their shoulder bags cut open and their wallets removed by thieves without their knowledge. Both incidents occurred in the tent market which operates on weekdays during lunchtime between Soi Tonson and Soi Lang Suan, behind the Embassy's main building. Since this is an area where American citizens who live or work in the area may have reason to go, we wanted to make sure that all Americans were aware of these incidents. American citizens are reminded to remain particularly vigilant in the area of the tent market and in other similarly crowded areas and to make sure that handbags, purses, backpacks, and wallets are in your control at all time. Thieves typically prey on people's unawareness and take advantage of crowded conditions. The Embassy has notified the police, and they plan to increase patrols in the tent market area.
