Cambodia News (Phnom Penh): On October 7, 2021, at 13:00 pm on National Road 5, Phsar Toch village, Sangkat Toul Sangkae 1, Khan Russey Keo, in front of the PTT petrol station, a 19-year-old Khmer man, Mao Chakrophop and a 22-year-old, Long Kunti, got caught stealing a BAJAJ tuk-tuk (PNH 1CS7946) that belonged to a 41-year-old tuk-tuk driver, Pun Sanron.

The victim had left his tuk-tuk to go to lunch and then the suspects attempted to steal it by starting up the engine and pulling out the cord of the PTT petrol station's CCTV, but they got caught by the neighbors, who saw the thieves and shouted for help.
The police chased after the two thieves and got them arrested at the railway station in Chong Khsach village, Sangkat Toul Sangkae 1. The suspects have been held in custody awaiting trial, and the stolen vehicle was returned to the owner.
