Chinese Shooting in Phnom Penh Street at Dawn

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.

True.
Not very reassuring to be honest.

Very reassuring to the person that is hit a by a stray bullet.
Who exactly is this person getting hit by stray bullets ??? Show one Chinese on Chinese shooting recently where a bystander has been shot .... Just like the other guy opining the shooter was on meth .... You guys got great imaginations .. your talents are wasted here on CEO, you should be writing crime novels .... You'll be millionaires by weeks end .... ;-)



Get your facts straight, we are going to be multi- millionaire's.
Hahaha .... Touche brother !!! .... I stand corrected :-)

Stray bullets are rare for the most part. Although in 2017, there were >150 children (<13) killed by strays in 6 months, in the US.
40 to 68% were inside. And there are thousands of near misses.

Before I'm reminded, I realise this is not US...

"It happens so regularly," said Chris Herrmann, a gun violence expert at John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York City. "If this happened in a foreign country, it would be headline news."

...but the recent influx seem to have upped the per head ratio of gang-related targeted gunfire. I doubt they're good shots.

You're more likely to stung by a stray bullet ant; then you will wish it was a bullet. :evil::whip:
