2 Chinese Nabbed Stealing Bags from Cars in Sihanoukville
Preah Sihanouk province, Cambodia news: On August 28, 2018, at 20:45, at Village 2, Sangkat 4, Sihanoukville, two Chinese nationals were detained by police after they were caught stealing a Mont Blanc bag from a parked car. The two suspects were identified as XU MENG JIE, male, 26 years old, no occupation, and CHEN WEI JIAN, male, 28 years old, occupation: mobile money changer.
Fortunately, the owner of the car, Ron Ratha, saw the two thieves breaking into his vehicle, so he ran over to stop them, but both suspects managed to escape. Mr Ratha then filed a report with the police, who found the two suspects after some investigation.
After their arrests, police learned that this was the suspects' third car robbery, and that they had netted US$1000 and $30,900 in their previous thefts. Both men are due to appear before Sihanoukville Provincial Court.

Thieves has duplicate keys to a luxury car? How did they get access and time? Play valet parking attendants? And they didn’t drive off with the car to be chopped up?
Seriously scary stuff. Glad they were caught.

It's probably better for everyone that they didn't drive off in the car, they may have got hurt or killed someone. Plenty of money in that town. Opportunists paradise, lots more to come.
Always "hope" but never "expect".
