Man Dies In Tops Supermarket

Here we have the sad story of a man who died while shopping at Tops Supermarket the other night. The rather interesting part about this story is that the police and medical examiners couldn't determine the time of death. He "clearly had been dead for some time."

This of course leads to the inevitable question: How many people actually shop at Tops? For a guy (in a bright yellow shirt, no less) to be lying unconscious in the aisle of a grocery store and... what? Nobody can figure out how long he had been there? 10:30 at night is the busiest time of the day in Pattaya. (I'm guessing that the employees saw him quite a bit earlier, and figured that if they just ignored him, he might go away... either that or this is yet another example of the famous hour-long wait for emergency medical services in Pattaya.)

By the way... who actually does shop at Tops?

Two answers to your questions:

The man appears to be lying supine in the packaged meat (ie-lunch meat) section of the store. Since nobody really eats too much of that, it was not a popular aisle and therefore he was left to 'nap' for an extended amount of time.
I don't shop at Tops, it is a lame store.
