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.

It seems that the main victim of the violence was the Chinese man himself. For the moment, the circumstances of the incident are unclear. More information to follow.

I drove last there before the police arrived.. That guy was standing behind a counter in a coffee shop covert in blood. Everyone was keeping their distance and some guys were watching holding metal poles.

Luckily nobody got hurt aside from the guy himself =)

It's been reported that at least two other people may have been injured in the random attack, including a policeman.

It was however the Chinese assailant who was the most seriously wounded in the incident, but police were taking no chances, and he was taken off to hospital in hand-cuffs. The reason for the outburst of violence remains a mystery, but it has been suggested that the man had been taking drugs.

The locals sorted it out before the police arrived

Just a shame none of them had a gun to end it quickly

Surely the Cambodian people are getting sick of their Chinese visitors now ?

Hence the serious beating, I guess?

That was quite some mob justice....
