Perhaps hoping the early hour would conceal their crime, two men attempted to steal a motorbike from their victim just after sunrise on Saturday in the capital’s Meanchey district.

Giving out only foggy details, cops say there was a struggle for the bike, but the 28- and 34-year-old weren’t able to get away with it and were apprehended by bushy-tailed boys in blue in no time.

Without even enough time for a nap in a holding cell, the duo were forwarded straight to the district court for legal action.
