Walking ATM Beaten & Robbed after Walking away from ATM

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.

Walking ATM Beaten & Robbed after Walking away from ATM

Post by prahocalypse now »

A barang got beaten and robbed after withdrawing cash from an ATM on St. 178.

The thieves were on motorbikes. The barang was drunk.

He cried for help, but nobody helped.

It happened this morning at 4 a.m.

Nothing good ever happens to drunk foreigners on St.178 at 4 a.m.

He has been taken to Calmette hospital.

Poor guy. It's easy to assume he was somehow to blame for walking around drunk at 4am, but being drunk isn't a crime and it appears he wasn't being any trouble to anyone. It's easy to forget the dangers when you're in that state. It could happen to any of us. Shame his friends didn't keep a closer eye on him.

Saying that. this happens all the time in cities in the UK. At least here they do it for a reason - to rob you. In the UK they would more than likely just beat you up for fun.

No it can't happen to anyone.
Why would a mentally same person withdraw money at 4am on a dubious streetcorner.
In other countries you get killed for shit like that.

Would he be a better, wiser person in your view if that happened to him at 4pm on Sisowath?

Go on then, you get my first 'downvote', I think ever on the internet.
Your first name is misspelled.
