CityNews – Yesterday evening, Chiang Dao police were called to a scene in the Muangna sub-district of Chiang Dao, where a pick up car fell off the road down a 50 metre cliff.
By the time the police arrived at the scene, the pickup car was a wreck with injured people inside.
The pickup car carried a driver, two monks, and two nuns who were headed to a temple in Chiang Dao’s Wiang sub-district, where the monks and nuns stay.
A nun was found dead at the scene, whereas the other nun was severely injured.
