Lionair incident Thailand

On Thai language TV this morning (my wife translated for me)
First Officer on Lionair flight from Hat Yai (southern Thailand) to Don Mueang Bangkok was incapacitated shortly after takeoff - suspected heart attack.
Captain returned to Hat Yai but, sadly, the First Officer, believed to be Dutch, was dead by the time he reached hospital.
I have no other details at present.
