HIGHWAY ROBBERY VICTIM FIGHTS BACK
A quick-thinking victim of a drive-by thief took justice into her own hands in Phnom Penh on Thursday, when she tackled one of two suspects who she said stole her golden necklace. Police say the woman had been zipping by on her motorbike when a man swiped her necklace. The woman managed to grab one thief; another suspect, however, escaped with her prized piece of jewellery.

BERATED HUSBAND DOWNS CHEMICALS
A man tried to kill himself by swallowing potentially deadly chemicals after his wife criticised him for staying out and drinking, police said. The incident happened Friday in Kampong Chhnang province. After a booze-filled evening, the man returned home at midnight to a tongue-lashing from his wife, police said. The man ingested the chemicals to kill himself because he was “disappointed” that his wife blamed him, police said. The man’s wife managed to save his life by rushing him to a hospital.

WHODUNIT? WHY? POLICE DON'T KNOW
Police in the capital are at a loss to explain why a group of “gangsters” beat a motorbike taxi driver unconscious last week. Phnom Penh police say officers saved the man’s life by taking him to a hospital after the beating Thursday in the capital’s Meanchey district but added that the “gangsters” managed to flee the scene. No one knows what sparked the attack, police said.

The 22-year-old man is suspected of having robbed the woman in Tuol Sangke commune, Tuol Kork district on Thursday. However, the man has proclaimed his innocence, police said, telling investigators that he was drunk and never stole the phone.
