High School Kid Killed in Hit and Run

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.

Tboung Khmum, Cambodia News: At 11:50 am on July 16, 2019, in Ponhea Krek district, Tbong Khmum province, a 17-year-old high school student was killed in a hit and run road accident. A white Range Rover, plate number 2BG 7668, was driving fast when it hit the student while he was driving his motorbike on the National 7 road. The boy was thrown from his bike, and taken to Ponhea Krek Refugee Referral Hospital where he later died from his injuries.

The driver did not stop, but drove on for about a kilometer down the road before abandoning the car and running away from the scene. He is being sought by the police.
Both vehicles have been removed to the police station as evidence and an inquiry is under way.
RIP.

Rip to the kid. Too many times I have seen them pull out into traffic without looking.
