Chinese Women in Lexus Track Down Phone Thieves on Scoopy & Run Them Over

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.

They suspected that the two Cambodian men were thieves and were going to take their phones,” he said of the two Chinese women in the SUV.


So running them over was a preemptive strike? :facepalm:
What they really said was translated from Chinese to Khmer by Google Translate.
and then back to English.... 8)

That is interesting - because the night before on Friday night, me and my partner were driving home through Russian market at about 11.30pm and she had her bag snatched off the back of my moto. Two young kids on a scoopy. Fuckers got away. Work permit, i pad, phone, cards, cash gone - I wonder if we might be able to get them back.

Looks like karma caught up with them pretty soon.

On 2nd thoughts - I didn't see the moto for long, I don't think it was a scoopy. But sounds like they could be connected.

Hope they are ok, they don't need to be mowed over.

Yes but she was local. These two may not have the connections to just walk away for a few grand. And I hope they don't a few years in prison would look good on them.

Scoopy's are pretty common, as are bag-snatchers around areas a lot of foreigners frequent.
Silence, exile, and cunning.
