Gruesome accident involving 3 foreigners on Road No. 4

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.

Apparently 3 foreign men on one big motorbike, hit from behind by a truck.
I've been told that the 2 deadly victims were decapitated. The remaining person is seriously injured. Horrible. RIP. I hope the one guy survives this ordeal.

It's strange, the guy commenting below is asking about foreigners as well but I can't make out his question.

All of the people in the photo's appear to be khmer, and it's unlikely a foreigner was driving that truck... so not sure what the foreigner aspect in play here is.

But it seems it was a family, with the father and daugher being dead and the mother in serious condition.
