A violent road chase ended with injuries for three gang members in Pursat yesterday.

Police said that two gangs had an argument that escalated into a highway battle between three men on a single motorbike and five men on two.

One of the five men threw a rock at the rival trio, causing them to lose control and crash into a lamp post.

The group of five swiftly disappeared from the scene. The victims were sent to a commune health centre.
