Truck pelted with rocks

       A teenage gang pelted rocks at a 10-wheel truck early yesterday despite the presence of more police patrols on the roads.
       Driver Tanongsak Kitimanuwong told police teenagers on two motorcycles sped towards his vehicle from the opposite direction.
       One threw a rock at the windscreen,breaking it. The driver was unhurt.
       The attack took place on the Asia 41 road in Surat Thani's Wiang Sa district.
       The road has become popular with rock-throwing gangs who seek their targets there among motorists.
       There have been reports of five vehicles being pelted with rocks in Muang, Ban Na San, Wiang Sa and Tha Chang districts of the province.
       Police are patrolling the route more often, but the attacks persist.
       Rock-throwers have also attacked vehicles in Ratchaburi, Phetchaburi,Chumphon and Prachuap Khiri Khan provinces.
