Sources from the traffic authority of Keo Seima District Inspectorate reported that a 40-year-old Cambodian farmer named Van Chrum, who currently lives in O'Am village, Sre Khtom commune, Keo Seima district, Mondulkiri province, was seriously injured in the accident and unfortunately, he died in the middle of the road. He was riding a recycled motorcycle without a license plate and without a helmet.The eyewitnesses claim that the accident was caused by the motorcyclist who was carrying rambutan across the road to a shop and was not careful when he suddenly crossed into the traffic.
The second victim is Prean Dalin, a 30-year-old Khmer worker from Boeng Cheng Village, Stung Leu Commune, Banan District, Battambang Province.

Currently, the body of the deceased has been handed over to the relatives and family for a traditional ceremony, and the other party has been sent to Mondulkiri Provincial Referral Hospital for treatment. The vehicles in the accident have been stored at the Keo Seima District Police Inspectorate for later resolution.
