Pol Lt Sathaporn Sawadee, deputy inspector for investigation at Khanna Yao station, rushed to soi 26 at Sukhaphan 5 road in Bang Khen district where he found Mr Yothphol, 26, lying dead in a pool of blood with his head smashed.
A hundred meters away was the dead racer’s black Honda CBR motorcycle that did not have a license plate.
On the outbound side of the soi road was a red Ducati motorcycle, which also did not have a license plate, with the front badly damaged after ramming a parked taxi.
The slightly injured rider, Mr Decha Buanoi, 29. was sent to B Care Medical Center hospital for treatment.
Mr Chompoo, 53, the taxi driver told police that he had parked his cab near the entrance of the soi while waiting for a passenger and saw the 2 big bikes racing loudly down the opposite side of the road.
