A 27-year-old man was arrested in Phnom Penh’s Daun Penh district on Sunday after he crashed into a car and seriously injured himself as he fled the scene of an alleged bag snatching.

Police said that an old woman was crossing the road to a market when the suspect grabbed her bag. Police saw the incident unfold and gave chase, and the suspect crashed into another vehicle.

Police sent him to hospital first. KAMPUCHEA THMEY
