Cambodia News, (Phnom Penh): At 10:00 pm on May 14, 2022, a thief and his accomplice ran to snatch a mobile phone from a tuktuk driver, but was unable to escape when he was chased by the owner. After being detained, one man was handed over to the police, while the other escaped along Mao Tse Toung Street in Sangkat Tuol Svay Prey II, Khan Boeung Keng Kang, Phnom Penh.

First, the victim was driving his tuktuk along Street 205, when two suspects appeared and pretended to call him to carry vegetables. The victim then stopped the tricycle, when the suspect saw a good opportunity to seize a Samsung phone from the victim and tried to escape, but the driver chased him, calling the neighbors for help. When they arrived at Mao Tse Tung Road, one thief was stopped by the crowd of local people in front of a metfone company, while the other man escaped.

Citizens then reported to local authorities, who brought the suspect to the administrative police station in Sangkat Tuol Svay Prey II for questioning and further action in accordance with legal procedures. The tuktuk driver was given back his telephone.
