Three-car smash at railway crossing
28 June 2017
A train departing Phnom Penh for Preah Sihanoukville province slammed into a car yesterday in Toul Kork district, sending it careering into two other cars stopped by the tracks.

Khat Khon Tith, Boeung Kak 2 commune police chief, said no one was injured in the crash.
“There was one car directly hit by the train and that car then hit the other two cars,” he said. “The other two cars incurred minor damages.”
Mr Khon Tith said the driver of the car directly hit was trying to cross the tracks before the train passed by.

The two cars that had minor damage left the scene and the heavily damaged car was removed by a crane before being impounded, he added.
