MYSTERIOUS MURDER LEAVES COPS IN THE DARK
Police are looking for clues after the body of a 72-year-old woman was found beside her house in Battambang province Sunday. The woman’s body had multiple wounds, leading police to assume she had been killed with some kind of solid object while she was listening to the radio and cutting grass. Authorities are speculating that the woman was killed because of a bitter dispute between her and an unknown suspect. However, nobody witnessed the apparent murder, so police officers will have to rely on their best sleuthing skills to solve this puzzling whodunnit.

MAN AVOIDS FIGHT BY BRANDISHING LARGE AXE
Police in Banteay Meanchey province have arrested a man accused of attempting to kill his sister and brother-in-law. The brother-in-law claimed the suspect threatened him and his wife with an axe in front of their home last week. They were too frightened to go outside. When arrested by police, the suspect allegedly admitted that he had become embroiled in a heated argument with the couple, which made him so enraged that he grabbed an axe to warn them not to argue with him.
