Who is this mysterious "MR TOMI" ?


Cambodia News (Phnom Penh): At 4:10 a.m, on 19 August 2022, two drunk Chinese men were seen arguing in the street, which eventually led to a fight, and then a car accident at the base of the Chroy Changvar bridge in Khan Daun Penh, Phnom Penh.

According to sources at the scene, prior to the incident, the two drunken Chinese men were seen arguing violently and ended up fighting in front of the Preah Keto Mealea Hospital along Street 47 in Srah Chak. The nearby residents attempted to separate the two men, but they climbed into a gray BMW X6, (which had a license plate marked MR TOMI), and took off along Street 47 at high speed.

Suddenly, the car lost control and sped up the Chroy Changvar bridge, and then on the road down from the Chroy Changvar bridge, it ended up hitting a structure in the park and stopped. The airbags were triggered and and the front wheel on the left side of the car was broken. The garden was ruined by the accident.



After the accident, the two Chinese men got out of the car and started to quarrel again, when suddenly, another car drove up to pick up the two men and quickly transported them away from the accident scene.

The damaged vehicle, with the distinct MR TOMI number plate, was left behind at the scene. Local police made a note of the incident, and then towed MR TOMI away for storage at the Land Traffic Office of the Phnom Penh Municipal Police for further legal procedures.

No word on what happened to his mate Mr Jerry.

That sounds sinister. Is there a secret Chinese rescue and extraction team available to rich Chinese?

Had a crash? Killed a local? Destroyed a road divider? Dial 888 and wait for help.

I have been looking for a BMW X6. And the plate will suite me fine!

I would stay clear of this one. Even if it were not damaged the grey paint job (Storm Bay Grey if original BMW?) almost seems done with a handbrush over the original blue (Estoril?) in the picture showing the drivers' seat!

I think that I may be best off sticking with my Ford Ranger.
