Suicide suspected in the death of an American man in Pattaya

Yet another visitor to Thailand has taken his life in the popular resort of Pattaya an area where it seems many foreigners take their own lives, often by jumping off balconies.

This time the incident occurred at the Baa Intira Apartments on soi 16 off the Naklua Road. Officers and medics were alerted to the situation on Tuesday night. When they arrived at the apartment they discovered Patrick Fallon, 58, from New Jersey lying face down on the bed, it is thought he had been dead for around three days.

The medics suspected suicide right away due to the presence of a bottle of wine close to the body and a glass of water that had an unknown pink powder inside. There were no signs of disturbance or foul play and no signs of injury to the deceased.
