Gisle Reikvam from Norway Arrested at Wat Phnom for Smashing ABA ATM in Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Not ready with the pitchforks yet :mob: Just wondering. ATM-smashing seems to be the latest trend in the "foreigners behaving badly" series. Remember the good old days when foreigners getting naked was all the rage ? Nostalgia. :Bravo:
I miss those days. ATM attacks are so lame.

Totally lame reporting on this from the PPP:

One man was short of funds and showed an equally short temper in the capital’s Daun Penh district when he took his rage out on an ATM and was arrested yesterday.

Unable to withdraw money, the man began destroying the machine and its booth until nearby people called on cops to intervene.

Police came and took the man to the station to answer for his damage to the dollar dispenser.

I had a friend who went off the rails in London just over 20 years ago. He was getting messed up on all sorts and I was a bit concerned driving around to the cash point. Anyway, he stuck some wrong card in once or twice and then by the time the last one worked he was in a rage. So he started going nuts but the money had just spilled out on the ground. I picked up some and tried to explain what was happening but then he was banging the keyboard and causing a scene and I got the fuck out of there before the old bill turned up. He crashed into a cop on the way back to his home and got into a chase and wrecked his car and went to jail. He got out but is long dead by now. The attacking the ATM thing was what reminded me, when he couldn't even see hundreds of pounds spilling out and kept punching the inanimate object. :?
Silence, exile, and cunning.
