Police arrested half of a would-be thieving duo after he was abandoned by his so-called partner on Tuesday morning in Phnom Penh’s Chamkarmon district.
The two suspects attempted to snatch a foreign pedestrian’s phone as they rode by on their moto.
While they failed to remove the phone from their victim’s hands, the suspects did catch the eye of a nearby police officer, who managed to dislodge one suspect – a 22-year-old man – from the motorcycle.
His companion, however, managed to flee the scene.
