Phnom Penh: On April 06 at 5:15 pm, an elderly western man, identified as British, passed out in the street on the way back from the market on street 430, Sangkat Tul Tumpong 2, Khan Chamkarmorn, Phnom Penh.

Before the incident, the man was walking by himself carrying a lot of items. But then the victim suddenly collapsed on to the ground, injuring himself on his face and legs.
People near by tried to help by giving him a massage until he came back to consciousness. After waking up, the victim told everybody that he is British, and that he was feeling dizzy.
The police contacted the ambulance to take the victim to Khmer Soviet Friendship Hospital.

LoL. If I had to guess, it's because they often get pics from various sources like we do.

Do the police get a "tip" from the hospital when they pass them a victim/patient?

Must practise my fainting technique for when I next need a massage and a free taxi ride.
